Williams voted Yea on the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (H.R. 1, Roll Call 190) on July 3, 2025, calling it 'fantastic for Main Street America' and a bill that 'puts more money in the hands of the people.' He dismissed criticism that it was 'just a tax cut for the wealthy' as Democratic misinformation.

Vote: on "The Congressional Budget Office projected the OBBB would add approximately $3-4 trillion to the…"

Williams publicly framed the OBBB as a pro-small-business bill that would help 'Main Street America' and dismissed deficit concerns. The CBO projected the bill would add $3-4 trillion to the deficit and cut $930 billion from Medicaid. The CWA union scored his entire 2025 record at 0%, with all votes classified as…

In 2015, Williams introduced an amendment to a transportation bill that would have exempted auto dealerships — including his own Roger Williams Auto Mall — from rules prohibiting the rental or loaning of vehicles under safety recall. He argued on the House floor: 'I am a second-generation auto dealer. I have been in the industry most of my life. I know it well.'

Vote: on "The Office of Congressional Ethics (OCE) found 'substantial reason to believe' that Williams'…"

Williams introduced an amendment that would have directly benefited his own auto dealership by exempting it from having to ground recalled loaner vehicles. The independent Office of Congressional Ethics found 'substantial reason to believe' he violated conflict-of-interest rules — the most serious finding short of a…

Williams voted Yea on the Paycheck Protection Program Flexibility Act (2020) which enabled his own auto dealership to have its $1-2 million PPP loan forgiven. He voted against a Democratic bill requiring public disclosure of PPP loan recipients. The National Auto Dealers Assn ($75,000 PAC donor) advocated for car dealer-friendly provisions in the PPP legislation.

Vote: on "Williams voted Yea on the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (H.R. 1, Roll Call 190) on July 3, 2025…"

Williams voted for legislation that allowed his own business to receive $1-2 million in forgivable PPP loans while also voting against transparency in who received those loans. His top donor, the National Auto Dealers Association ($75,000 PAC), lobbied for car dealer-friendly provisions. Williams' simultaneous roles…

In-person town halls and direct constituent accessibility in TX-25

483d silent

[ Show full donor-interest summary ]

Expected position: As the representative of a district spanning from Fort Worth suburbs to rural counties east of Abilene with 806,742 constituents, Williams would be expected to hold in-person town halls to engage constituents on the OBBB's Medicaid and SNAP cuts, his PPP loan receipt, and his auto-dealer ethics record. Evidence of activity on adjacent topics: An iPetition titled 'Citizens' Summons for Congressman Roger Williams' circulated among constituents requesting a town meeting 'at a place of known public convenience.' No in-person, open-floor town halls held by Williams were identified in public records during his congressional tenure. His public engagement consists primarily of telephone town halls, controlled business tours (such as the Henson Lumber tour in Cresson, TX in August 2025), and social media posts. He held a 'Coffee with Your Congressman' event at the Parker County Sheriff's Posse in September 2025 and an employee town hall at Henson Lumber in August 2025, but these were controlled-format gatherings rather than open public forums. During this period, Williams was actively issuing press releases on the OBBB, impeachment of judges, border security, and the ICEBlock app — demonstrating public availability on controlled platforms while avoiding unscripted open constituent confrontation.

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.
