Voted yea on H.R. 29 (Laken Riley Act) on 2025-01-07: Voted for legislation mandating ICE detention for undocumented immigrants charged with theft offenses. Passed with bipartisan support (264-159), and Moore's yes vote was consistent with his Republican conference position.

Voted yea on H.R. 1 (One Big Beautiful Bill Act) on 2025-07-03: Voted for Trump's signature reconciliation bill with CBO-estimated $2.4 trillion deficit increase. As the first-ever Utah Republican on Ways and Means, Moore was a key figure in shaping the legislation and defended it saying CBO estimates were 'inaccurate.' Constituents booed him and GOP delegates later rejected him at the 2026 convention.

Voted nay (procedural) on H.Res. 863 (Impeachment of DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas) on 2024-02-06: Switched his vote from 'yes' to 'no' at the last moment as a procedural move so Republicans could bring the resolution up for another vote. Moore supported impeachment substantively but his vote switch contributed to the 216-214 failure.

Voted yea on H.R. 8035 (Ukraine Security Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2024) on 2024-04-20: Voted for $60.8 billion in Ukraine aid, earning an 'A' grade from Republicans for Ukraine. Voted for every major Ukraine aid package including lend-lease, and stated 'Ukrainians, the reality is they're winning.' A rare consistent pro-Ukraine voice in the GOP.

Voted yea on H.R. 3746 (Fiscal Responsibility Act of 2023) on 2023-05-31: Voted to suspend the debt ceiling and avoid default, praising the bill's 'commonsense work requirements to SNAP and TANF' and $2.1 trillion in projected deficit reduction. All four Utah Republicans supported the measure.

Moore stated when voting for the Fiscal Responsibility Act in 2023: 'When I ran for Congress, I committed to use my role in Congress to reverse Washington's dangerous debt culture... this historic legislation could reduce our national deficit by $2.1 trillion over 6 years.'

Moore campaigned as a fiscal conservative committed to 'reversing Washington's dangerous debt culture' and voted for the FRA citing $2.1 trillion in deficit reduction, but voted for the OBBB in 2025 that the CBO projected would add $2.4 trillion in deficits — defending it with optimistic growth assumptions and…

Moore co-chaired the Better Boundaries initiative in 2017-2018, which led to Utah's Proposition 4 establishing an independent redistricting commission. He wrote about redistricting reform in graduate school and 'has long believed in redistricting reform' inspired by Ronald Reagan.

Vote: on "By 2025-2026, Moore faced a serious Republican primary challenge from state Rep. Karianne…"

Moore co-chaired the citizen initiative for independent redistricting reform and championed it for years, but faced a primary challenge in 2026 where he distanced himself from the commission he helped create, saying it had 'strayed from its original mission' after the new maps weakened his party's position.

Moore voted to certify the 2020 presidential election for Joe Biden on his third day in office, stating 'voting to strip electoral votes from sovereign states is a dangerous precedent, and I did not hear anything that justified such a high bar.' He was one of the few Republicans who refused to object.

Moore voted to certify the 2020 election against his party's majority — a principled stand — but then voted against impeaching Trump for inciting the January 6 attack, arguing process concerns while also demanding 'justice for January 6th.' He later acknowledged 'we were wrong' about the broader effort but has…

In-person town halls and constituent access

207d silent

[ Show full donor-interest summary ]

Expected position: As a sitting congressman, Moore would be expected to hold regular in-person town halls to hear from constituents. His district has significant federal workforce employment (Hill AFB, IRS Ogden processing facility) that was heavily impacted by DOGE cuts. Evidence of activity on adjacent topics: Moore held a tele-town hall on February 25, 2025 where he fielded questions about DOGE. However, a letter from Cache Valley constituents noted: 'Our Cache Valley rep, Blake Moore, has not held an in-person town hall since Jan 30, 2025, and that was in Kaysville. He has not met directly with constituents since, and he has no scheduled town halls on his website.' House Republican leaders were encouraging members to conduct virtual calls due to protests at in-person meetings.

President Trump's January 2025 full pardons of approximately 1,600 individuals indicted or sentenced for the January 6, 2021 Capitol attack

40d silent

[ Show full donor-interest summary ]

Expected position: Moore voted to certify the 2020 election and stated he 'feared for his life' on January 6. As a member who broke with his party to certify the election, he would be expected to publicly oppose pardons for those who attacked the Capitol and injured 138 officers — particularly the pardon that included individuals who assaulted police officers. Evidence of activity on adjacent topics: During this period, Moore was active holding a tele-town hall on February 25, 2025 where he addressed DOGE, federal worker layoffs at Hill Air Force Base and the IRS Ogden facility, and antitrust issues. He issued multiple press releases and appeared in media. However, when constituents and editorial boards pressed for his position on the January 6 pardons, a constituent wrote in the Standard-Examiner: 'His office told me that he had serious concerns and a statement would be forthcoming. That was weeks ago. Silence since then. We are left to conclude that Moore supports the pardons, that he is not concerned about attacks on our nation's seat of government.'

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:

Component	Weight	Signal
Contradiction Risk	30%	Stated positions contradicted by the record (recent findings boosted)
Donor Influence	20%	Distinct documented donors (FEC Schedule A PACs); inferred donors do not count
Connection Density	20%	Mapped relationships to lobbyists, contractors, interest groups; donor links excluded
Silence Risk	15%	Topics where donors have interests but the official is silent
Intelligence Volume	15%	Documented facts from verified sources
Constituency Deviation	0%	Shown, not weighted — a model estimate, not a record
Voting Misalignment	0%	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.
