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. Frederica S. Wilson, a Democrat representing Florida’s 24th congressional district, has served in the U.S. House since 2011. This profile details the $357,009.06 she received from organizational and PAC donors and the $10 in supporting independent expenditures, for a combined reported support of $357,019.06. Wilson sits on the Education and Workforce Committee and the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, where she also chairs the Water Resources and Environment subcommittee. The page separates direct contributions from outside‑group spending and lists the top contributors.

Top Organizational Funders (Current Cycle)

The largest direct contribution came from Marriott, a hospitality‑industry company, which gave $11,088. The next highest donors each contributed $5,000 and represent labor or industry groups: the American Israel Public Affairs Committee PAC (foreign‑policy advocacy), the Allied Pilots Association PAC and the Airline Pilots Association PAC (both airline‑pilot unions), and the Sheet Metal Workers International Association PAC (construction trades). Additional $5,000 gifts came from education‑focused groups such as the American Federation of Teachers‑AFL‑CIO Committee on Political Education and the NEA Fund for Children and Public Education. On the independent‑expenditure side, the Sierra Club Independent Action spent $10 to support Wilson; no outside groups reported spending to oppose her.

Funding Pattern

Funding patterns show a clear alignment between Wilson’s committee work and several donor sectors. Her role on the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee coincides with sizable contributions from airline‑pilot unions, which have a direct stake in aviation policy and infrastructure funding. Contributions from the Sheet Metal Workers and other construction‑related unions align with the Transportation Committee’s oversight of public works projects. Education‑related PACs such as the American Federation of Teachers and the NEA fund her, matching her membership on the Education and Workforce Committee. The hospitality‑industry donation from Marriott may relate to broader economic development concerns overseen by her committees. Wilson’s ranking‑member position on the Water Resources and Environment subcommittee is reflected in the modest support from the Sierra Club, an environmental advocacy group. Independent‑expenditure activity is negligible, with only $10 in support and zero opposition, indicating minimal outside‑group campaigning. No tracked votes are currently linked to her record, so no vote‑specific donor alignment can be assessed.
