Follow the Money
Money controls politics. Here's who's spending it, where it goes, and whether Black Americans actually benefit.
Donor data tracks Black representatives and the PACs shaping Black political power in Congress.
Who Funds Black Reps?
Search by representative name or state (e.g. “Jeffries”, “NY”, “Warnock”) to see who's writing the checks.
These PACs give money to Black members of Congress. Not all are a conflict — some genuinely support Black interests. Cards flagged with a warning are the ones to watch.
