Committees
Seats as published by the congress-legislators project. Past seats are those no longer listed since Analisa began recording them.
No committee seats are listed.
Federal contracts in the district
Contract obligations attributed to New Mexico's 1st district by each action's county and its award's ZIP code (land shares through census tracts); an estimate where ZIP codes cross district lines. Shown next to the member's record: neither explains the other.
Contract money is attributed to districts from the 118th Congress boundaries onward; this member's last district predates them.
Campaign money
What the member's campaigns reported receiving, per FEC two-year cycle, and the federal contracts of the organizations that sponsor the giving PACs (each sponsor matched to a contract recipient by AI, with its probability). Comparisons of public records: neither explains the other.
