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

Republican Representative Kim Young has served California's 40th District in the U.S. House since 2021. This profile details the $1,167,119.73 in direct organizational and PAC contributions he received, the $2,340,490.94 in supporting independent expenditures, and the combined estimated support of $3,507,610.67. It also outlines his assignments on the Foreign Affairs, Strategic Competition with China, and Financial Services committees. The data reflect the current two‑year election cycle and exclude any personal or individual donations.

Top Organizational Funders (Current Cycle)

The largest direct donor is the political group GROW THE MAJORITY, which contributed six separate amounts that total roughly $514,300, indicating a strong grassroots‑oriented backing. DEFEND OUR MAJORITY contributed two sums adding up to about $109,710, while PROTECT THE HOUSE CALIFORNIA 2024 gave $65,028 and the American Israel Public Affairs Committee Political Action Committee contributed $62,050, reflecting pro‑Israel advocacy. On the independent‑expenditure side, the super‑PAC FAIRSHAKE spent a leading $1,800,309 (plus an additional $97,636) in support of Young, making it the dominant outside spender, while opposition spending was minimal at $4,422.

Funding Pattern

The funding pattern shows a heavy reliance on political‑action groups rather than industry‑specific PACs, even though Rep. Young serves on the Financial Services Committee, which could attract banking or investment interests that are not evident in the top donor list. The dominant external support comes from FAIRSHAKE, a super‑PAC that generally backs Republican candidates, indicating coordinated outside investment. The presence of the National Association of Realtors PAC among supporting super‑PACs suggests some alignment with real‑estate interests, though no direct real‑estate industry contributions appear in the direct donor data. Opposition spending is negligible, highlighting an unchallenged financial advantage in the current cycle. No recorded votes on tracked bills are available, so a direct vote‑alignment analysis with donor interests cannot be performed. Overall, the profile reflects strong organized‑political backing and modest opposition, with committee assignments not directly mirrored by the disclosed donor sectors.
