Suozzi voted FOR the Laken Riley Act in January 2025 (mandating ICE detention), then voted FOR DHS/ICE funding in January 2026 — but immediately regretted the funding vote after a fatal ICE shooting. His DHS vote made him one of just 7 Democrats to f

Vote: on "Suozzi voted against the One Big Beautiful Bill (Trump's reconciliation bill) on July 3, 2025, but s"

Suozzi campaigned as 'Mr. SALT' threatening to block bills without the deduction his constituents needed, but told the Treasury Secretary he agrees with '75%' of Trump's reconciliation bill — a bill that did not restore the SALT deduction and represe

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
Silence Risk	25%	Topics where donors have interests but the official is silent
Contradiction Risk	25%	Stated positions contradicted by voting record (recent findings boosted)
Connection Density	20%	Mapped relationships to lobbyists, contractors, interest groups
Intelligence Volume	10%	Documented facts from verified sources (logarithmic scale)
Donor Influence	10%	Distinct donors with interests overlapping committee jurisdiction
Constituency Deviation	5%	Gap between district priorities and legislative focus
Voting Misalignment	5%	Floor votes contradicting stated platform positions

Each component produces a raw score 0–100. The weighted sum yields the overall score. Tier thresholds: Critical ≥ 45, High ≥ 36, Elevated ≥ 22, Moderate ≥ 10, Low < 10.

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.
