Who This Is

Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman, a Democrat representing New Jersey’s 12th congressional district, serves in the U.S. House. Her exact start date in office is not specified in the source data. This profile details the $412,213.24 she received directly from organizational and PAC donors, the $10 in supporting independent expenditures, and the combined total of $412,223.24. No committee assignments are listed for her in the current cycle.

Top Organizational Funders (Current Cycle)

The largest direct contributions each total $5,000. The International Association of Sheet Metal, Air, Rail, and Transportation Workers PAL, a labor union for sheet‑metal and transportation workers, contributed $5,000. The International Association of Bridge, Structural, Ornamental and Reinforcing Iron Workers (IPAL), another construction‑union, gave $5,000. ENDO Pharmaceuticals Inc Political Action Committee, representing a pharmaceutical company, contributed $5,000. FirstEnergy Corp. Political Action Committee, a utility‑sector PAC, also contributed $5,000. The only recorded independent expenditure was a $10 supporting ad purchase by Sierra Club Independent Action, an environmental advocacy group.

Funding Pattern

Pattern Observation: All of Coleman’s disclosed direct contributions are clustered at the $5,000 level, reflecting the contribution ceiling for many organizational PACs. The donor mix includes labor unions in the construction sector, pharmaceutical company PACs, and an energy utility PAC, indicating support from a range of industry and worker groups. Because she holds no committee assignments in the current record, there is no obvious legislative jurisdiction that directly aligns with any of these donors’ primary interests. The sole independent expenditure, a $10 support from the Sierra Club Independent Action, is negligible and does not suggest significant outside spending pressure. No independent expenditures opposed her, and the supporting amount is minimal. No recent votes on tracked bills are linked to her record, so alignment between her voting behavior and donor interests cannot be assessed at this time.
