No committee seats are listed.

Federal contracts in the district

Contract obligations attributed to Texas's 6th 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.
