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. Rohit Khanna, a Democrat representing California's 17th district, has served in the U.S. House since 2017. This profile details his direct campaign contributions of $1,423,930.60, the $109,921.96 in supporting independent expenditures, and the combined total of $1,533,852.56. It separates donor categories and lists his key committee assignments. The data reflect the most recent two‑year filing cycle.

Top Organizational Funders (Current Cycle)

The largest direct contributor is Amalgamated Bank, a financial institution, which gave roughly $710,776 across multiple filings, followed by Sapphire Strategies, a consulting firm, contributing $334,090. Additional sizable gifts from Amalgamated Bank amount to $29,223, $27,105 and $23,141. In the independent‑expenditure arena, the progressive group Protect Progress spent $108,546 supporting Khanna, while the South Bay AFL‑CIO Labor Council contributed about $1,027 in support. No outside groups reported spending to oppose him.

Funding Pattern

Pattern observation: Khanna’s top financial‑sector donor, Amalgamated Bank, provides a substantial share of his direct funding, yet his committee work focuses on strategic competition with China, oversight, and armed services cyber innovation, areas not directly regulated by banking policy. The sizable consulting‑firm contribution from Sapphire Strategies aligns with a broader trend of professional service firms supporting incumbents, but does not map to a specific committee jurisdiction. Independent‑expenditure support comes exclusively from progressive organizations, indicating a favorable alignment with left‑leaning policy goals. No independent expenditures opposed him, suggesting limited organized opposition. With no tracked votes available, the record cannot be linked to donor interests at this time. Overall, the funding mix shows strong financial‑sector backing alongside modest progressive Super PAC support, without evident conflict with his committee assignments.
