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.

Added: 28 Apr 2026
✓ verified Primary Source Voted yea_unverified on H.R. 8035 (Ukraine Security Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2024) on 2024-04-20: Clarke voted for $60.1 billion in Ukraine aid, voting with all Democrats and against 112 Republicans. This is a party-line vote rather than a telling cross-pressure event, but it signals foreign policy alignment consistent with her broader progressive internationalism.
Date: 2024-04-20 Added: 28 Apr 2026 ↗ RECORDS: Roll call: H.R. 8035
✓ verified AI Inference Voted nay_unverified on H.J.Res. 109 (Disapproving SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 121 (SAB 121 crypto custody rule)) on 2024-05-08: Clarke voted to preserve the SEC's crypto accounting rule, joining the Democratic majority. This reinforced her consistently anti-crypto voting record, opposing the industry across multiple bills. Her union-heavy donor base contrasts with crypto PACs that heavily backed other Democrats.
✓ verified Primary Source Voted nay_unverified on H.R. 4763 (Financial Innovation and Technology for the 21st Century Act (FIT21 crypto regulation)) on 2024-05-22: Clarke voted against the crypto industry's top legislative priority, standing against 71 House Democrats who voted yes. With her top donors being labor unions and healthcare, not crypto, this vote aligned with her donor base and her overall 'strongly against crypto' record of 6 anti-crypto votes with 0 pro-crypto statements.
✓ verified Primary Source Voted nay on H.R. 23 (Illegitimate Court Counteraction Act (ICC sanctions over Netanyahu arrest warrant)) on 2025-01-09: Clarke voted against imposing sanctions on the ICC for issuing arrest warrants against Israeli officials, breaking from 45 Democrats who voted yes (including every Democrat in AIPAC's top-tier donor list). Her district includes a substantial Orthodox Jewish community in Crown Heights, making the vote a clear cross-pressure between progressive foreign policy and pro-Israel constituent/donor expectations.
Date: 2025-01-09 Added: 28 Apr 2026 ↗ RECORDS: Roll call: H.R. 23
✓ verified Primary Source Voted nay on H.R. 3746 (Fiscal Responsibility Act of 2023 (debt ceiling deal)) on 2023-05-31: Clarke voted against the debt ceiling deal, joining 45 other Democrats while 165 supported it. She defected from House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries, who supported the bill. Her own press release acknowledged that default would jeopardize Social Security for 81,000 district seniors, Medicaid for 390,000 people, and 7,300 jobs—the material interests of her low- to moderate-income constituency.
