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

Thomas McClintock is a Republican member of the U.S. House representing California's 5th district since 2009. This profile details his campaign finance picture for the current two‑year cycle, separating direct organizational contributions from independent‑expenditure support. Direct contributions total $336,704.80, while supporting independent expenditures add $157.29, giving an estimated combined support of $336,862.09.

Top Organizational Funders (Current Cycle)

During the reporting period, the largest direct organizational donors each contributed $5,000. The top contributors include the Majority Committee PAC MC PAC, a leadership‑aligned Republican committee PAC; Steel PAC, representing the steel manufacturing sector; Eureka PAC, a political action committee whose specific industry is not disclosed; American Revival PAC, another partisan‑aligned group; and AIPAC PAC, the pro‑Israel political arm of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee. The only recorded independent‑expenditure group is Reform Leaders PAC, which spent $157.29 in support of McClintock. No super‑PACs or outside groups filed expenditures opposing him. The contributions and support are presented as separate categories.

Funding Pattern

Pattern observation: McClintock serves on the House Budget Committee, the Natural Resources Committee, and chairs the Judiciary Subcommittee on Immigration Integrity, Security, and Enforcement. None of the top direct donors are directly tied to the primary policy areas of these committees; for example, Steel PAC’s industry focus on steel manufacturing does not fall under the jurisdiction of the Natural Resources Committee. AIPAC PAC’s focus on U.S.-Israel relations also does not align directly with his committee assignments. The modest independent‑expenditure support of $157.29 from Reform Leaders PAC indicates limited outside spending activity in this cycle. No independent expenditures opposed McClintock were reported. No recent votes on tracked legislation are available to compare against donor interests. Overall, the finance profile shows a concentration of small $5,000 contributions from a range of partisan and sectoral PACs without a clear, singular industry dominance.
