Fitzpatrick called January 6th a 'coup attempt' but then voted against establishing the select committee to investigate it and against holding Mark Meadows in contempt — effectively blocking the very accountability he publicly endorsed.

Fitzpatrick touts his independence and bipartisanship, yet voted against both Trump impeachments despite calling January 6th a 'coup attempt' — a vote that aligned him with the most partisan elements of his party rather than his moderate self-branding.

Fitzpatrick voted against the American Health Care Act (H.R. 1628) on May 4, 2017, citing concerns about protecting people with pre-existing conditions and the opioid epidemic. He was one of 20 Republicans to oppose the bill.

Fitzpatrick voted against the AHCA in 2017 citing concerns about pre-existing conditions, but then voted for the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which eliminated the ACA individual mandate — a key mechanism for maintaining coverage of pre-existing conditions.

Platform: "Fitzpatrick brands himself as a moderate and independent Republican, co-chairing the bipartisan Problem Solvers Caucus and regularly touting bipartisanship."
Vote: on "Fitzpatrick voted against the Women's Health Protection Act (H.R. 3755) in September 2021, which…"
Fitzpatrick's moderate branding is contradicted by his votes against the Women's Health Protection Act. His anti-abortion position cost him support in a poll showing voters would abandon him once they learned of his stance.

Expected position: As a self-described moderate Republican in a competitive purple district, Fitzpatrick would be expected to engage directly and transparently with constituents through open, in-person town hall meetings. Evidence of activity on adjacent topics: Multiple media reports confirm Fitzpatrick last held an open, in-person town hall in 2017. He has since relied on telephone town halls, paid fundraisers styled as 'community conversations,' and controlled-access events. The DCCC noted in October 2025 his absence of in-person town halls stretches back 8+ years. A constituent-organized town hall was held in March 2025 in Fitzpatrick's absence. Fitzpatrick's office has defended the practice by questioning the authenticity of attendees, telling Face the Nation that 'dark money' groups pay protesters.

Expected position: As a former FBI agent and federal prosecutor who has positioned himself as a law-and-order moderate, Fitzpatrick would be expected to consistently address matters of presidential conduct and democratic norms. Evidence of activity on adjacent topics: The Bucks County Herald observed in July 2023 that Fitzpatrick had maintained 'a long habit of silence related to anything to do with Donald Trump.' He broke this silence with a statement on Trump's 37-count indictment that equated Trump and Biden in handling classified documents. The Philadelphia Inquirer noted in February 2025 that Fitzpatrick criticized Trump's Ukraine comments 'without naming him.' He has 'often shied away from saying anything, good or bad, about Trump' while representing a purple district.

Expected position: As the representative for Bucks and Montgomery counties, which are part of the SEPTA service area with thousands of suburban commuters, Fitzpatrick would be expected to engage actively in the SEPTA funding debate. Evidence of activity on adjacent topics: The Philadelphia Inquirer reported in August 2025 that SEPTA was implementing major service cuts affecting Fitzpatrick's constituents, and Democrats noted his 'relative absence from the discourse.' The DCCC spokesperson observed that Fitzpatrick 'says and does nothing when his community needs him most.' Fitzpatrick's team 'did not directly answer when asked about what solution he favors in the SEPTA impasse or about potential political fallout.'

Scoring Methodology

The Capture Risk Score is a composite 0–100 index measuring potential regulatory capture of elected officials. It is computed from seven weighted components:

ComponentWeightSignal
Contradiction Risk30%Stated positions contradicted by the record (recent findings boosted)
Donor Influence20%Distinct documented donors (FEC Schedule A PACs); inferred donors do not count
Connection Density20%Mapped relationships to lobbyists, contractors, interest groups; donor links excluded
Silence Risk15%Topics where donors have interests but the official is silent
Intelligence Volume15%Documented facts from verified sources
Constituency Deviation0%Shown, not weighted — a model estimate, not a record
Voting Misalignment0%Shown, not weighted — needs platform commitments almost nobody has; the roll-call record on /votes is the vote signal

Each component is the member's standing among all scored members of Congress, and the weighted sum is the overall score. Tiers are ranks: Critical is the top 5%, High the next 10%, Elevated the next 20%, Moderate the next 30%, and Low the rest.

Officials without at least 2 documented facts, 1 contradiction analysis, 1 voting record, or 1 constituency baseline are marked Insufficient Evidence and excluded from numeric ranking.

Contradiction findings from the last 180 days receive a recency boost. High-severity contradictions (score ≥ 70) receive additional weight.

Calculation Methodology

Contract values are summed from documented money flow chains where this entity appears as a source or destination node. Amounts are drawn from USASpending.gov, FEC filings, SEC EDGAR, or LD-2 lobbying registrations.

Donor contributions aggregate documented amounts from the donor_interests table, sourced from FEC individual and PAC contribution filings.

Connected officials are elected officials in our database with a mapped relationship (lobbying, board membership, campaign contribution, etc.) to this entity.

Annualised flow represents the total documented dollar amount traced through money flow hops involving this entity. Where hop-level amounts are unavailable, the chain-level documented total is used as a conservative upper bound.

All figures are drawn from public filings. Estimates are conservative — undisclosed transactions, dark money, and vanish-point hops are excluded from totals. This is a minimum documented floor, not a ceiling.
