Outside groups reported more than $2.4 million in spending to elect Matt Van Epps in Tennessee's 7th District — more than his own campaign raised for the whole race. The money came from Trump's super PAC and a short list of billionaires who don't live here.
H.R. 8413 preempts any state law that 'relates to' its provisions — California's Delete Act, Illinois' biometric privacy law, Washington's health-data law. It has no private right of action, so you can't sue. Comcast's PAC has given Joyce $35,000.
SpaceX, BAE, General Dynamics, Lockheed, RTX, Boeing, Northrop, L3Harris, Leonardo DRS, Leidos and Cubic are all among the twenty PACs that have given Carter the most money. He chairs the Appropriations subcommittee that writes their construction budget.
In 2018 he convened a roundtable to defend Smithfield after three juries sided with the neighbors of its waste lagoons — 'Nuisance is like beauty. It's in the eye of the beholder.' In 2026 he took credit for a farm bill provision that voids other states' livestock laws. Pork PAC money since 2020: $35,000.
Comer's D.C. Taxing Authority Review Act would require an act of Congress before the District could change any tax or fee — up or down. He told the markup it was aimed at the progressives D.C. voters had just elected. An $81 billion delivery company that had just lost a 20-cent fee fight wrote in to back it, and Comer put its letter in the record.
246 people died in Uri. Goldman chaired House Energy Resources in the session that followed. His committee advanced HB 1520 unanimously, which put $3.5 billion of gas companies' storm costs onto customers' bills through April 2039 — and a 2025 state audit found the gas weatherization rules produced 2 violations out of 8,732 inspections.
Jack vetted 400+ federal candidates for AIPAC, deciding who the group should bankroll. Then he was Trump's White House political director. Now, in his first term, he flies the country interviewing House candidates and reports back to Trump on who deserves the endorsement — while his own primary was cleared with $2.2 million in outside money.
Jack's Muhammad Ali American Boxing Revival Act passed the House by voice vote in March. He says it 'preserves the Ali Act.' The bill text lets a new kind of boxing company sign fighters to six-year contracts and skip the disclosures the Ali Act requires — and the company positioned to use it is a Saudi-funded conglomerate run by Dana White.
Boeing, Lockheed, Honeywell, SpaceX, RTX and Blue Origin all fund the chairman of the House Science, Space and Technology Committee. His own NASA bill writes statutory authority for a contract SpaceX already holds.
