Committee Assignments

Why this matters: committee seats are where legislative influence actually happens -- they are frequently the direct explanation for which industries and interest groups direct money toward a given member.

Timeline

Who This Is

Rep. Greg Casar, a Democrat representing Texas’s 35th district, has served in the House since 2023. This profile details the sources of his campaign financing, separating direct organizational contributions from independent‑expenditure spending. Direct contributions total $371,595.38, while supporting independent expenditures add $753.59, for a combined estimated support of $372,348.97.

Top Organizational Funders (Current Cycle)

The largest direct donor is AISLE 518, a political committee, which contributed $10,000. Among labor‑related donors, Demand Justice PAC gave $5,000, and the Machinists Non‑Partisan Political League of the International Association of Machinists & Aerospace Workers contributed $5,000, representing the manufacturing and aerospace sector. The Carpenters Legislative Improvement Committee of the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners also provided $5,000, reflecting the construction trades. The National Union of Healthcare Workers Federal Committee on Political Education contributed $5,000, indicating health‑care labor support. Independent‑expenditure groups were minimal; Community Change Voters spent $743.59 in total supporting Casar, and Sierra Club Independent Action added $10 in support.

Funding Pattern

Pattern observation: Casar’s top contributors are predominantly labor unions and progressive political committees, which aligns with his committee assignments. He serves on the House Committee on Education and Workforce, a panel that regularly oversees legislation affecting labor standards, apprenticeship programs, and workforce development—all areas of interest to the machinists, carpenters, healthcare, and communications workers unions that funded him. His role on the Oversight and Government Reform Committee does not directly intersect with the primary sectors of his donors, suggesting the donor profile is driven more by labor interests than by regulatory oversight concerns. Independent‑expenditure activity in support of Casar is modest, totaling less than $1,000, and no opposing expenditures were reported. No recorded votes on tracked bills are currently available, so a direct comparison between his voting record and donor preferences cannot be made at this time.
