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

Alexandria Ocasio‑Cortez has served as the Democratic U.S. Representative for New York’s 14th district since 2019. This profile details the $1,073,787.30 in direct organizational contributions she received in the current cycle, the $412.90 in supporting independent expenditures, and the $54,179.11 in opposing independent expenditures, for a combined support total of $1,074,200.20. It also lists her committee assignment to the House Energy and Commerce Committee.

Top Organizational Funders (Current Cycle)

The largest direct donor is the PAC Middle Seat, which contributed $106,600.50. Progressive Voices for Peace, a progressive advocacy group, gave $62,000.00. The Squad Victory Fund, a political action committee supporting the progressive House members known as “The Squad,” contributed a total of $157,716.62 across several unitemized entries. Amalgamated Bank, representing the financial services sector, provided $123,850.70 in contributions. On the independent‑expenditure side, the Keep America America Action Fund, a conservative‑leaning Super PAC, spent $40,700.00 opposing Ocasio‑Cortez. The progressive Super PAC United We Dream Action contributed $203.44 in support, while the We Decide network spent $11,752.00 opposing.

Funding Pattern

Pattern observation: Ocasio‑Cortez’s direct funding mix combines strong progressive donors with a notable contribution from a financial‑institution PAC, Amalgated Bank. While she serves on the Energy and Commerce Committee, which has jurisdiction over areas such as consumer protection and certain financial‑services matters, there is no direct oversight of traditional banking, making the Amalgated Bank support less directly tied to her committee work. The presence of multiple contributions from The Squad Victory Fund underscores her alignment with the progressive caucus in the House. The substantial opposition spending by the conservative Keep America America Action Fund reflects organized resistance to her policy positions, though the overall independent‑expenditure volume is modest compared with her direct contributions. Supporting independent‑expenditure activity is minimal ($203), indicating limited outside backing beyond her own fundraising network. No recorded votes on tracked bills are available to directly compare her legislative actions with donor interests at this time.
