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.

✓ verified Pending Review [constituency_baseline] District summary: Colorado's 1st Congressional District encompasses most of Denver and parts of Arapahoe and Jefferson counties. It is an urban, solidly Democratic district (D+56) that has been in Democratic hands for all but six years since 1933. The district is majority White (Non-Hispanic) at 54.1%, with a significant Hispanic population at 27.9% and Black or African American (Non-Hispanic) at 8.6%. The median household income of $94,592 is well above the national average, but the homeownership rate is only 48.5%, reflecting Denver's high housing costs. The district is relatively young (median age 35.2) and highly educated (56.6% hold a bachelor's degree or higher). Key issues include housing affordability, climate and environmental policy, reproductive rights, and homelessness.
Added: 29 Apr 2026
✓ verified Primary Source Voted nay on H.R. 5009 (National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2026) on 2025-12-10: DeGette voted nay_unverified against the NDAA citing provisions that 'force the United States to provide further weapons, including offensive weapons, to Netanyahu.' This vote defected from pro-Israel donor interests ($457,637 career total) while aligning with progressive constituents who have increasingly pressured her on military aid to Israel. A primary challenger defeated her in the 2026 Democratic assembly, partially over this issue.
Date: 2025-12-10 Added: 29 Apr 2026 ↗ RECORDS: Roll call: H.R. 5009
✓ verified Primary Source Voted nay on H.R. 29 (Laken Riley Act) on 2025-01-07: DeGette voted nay while 48 House Democrats crossed the aisle to pass this immigration detention bill. Her district is 27.9% Hispanic with a significant immigrant population (14.3% foreign-born) — constituents directly affected by expanded ICE detention authority. Her vote aligned with constituent demographic interests while the bill passed 264-159 with strong bipartisan support.
✓ verified Primary Source Voted abstain on H.Res. 894 (Strongly condemning and denouncing the drastic rise of antisemitism in the United States and around the world) on 2023-12-05: DeGette voted 'present' on this antisemitism condemnation resolution, rather than the 'yea' supported by 311 bipartisan members. She stated she condemned antisemitism but objected to the resolution's language. In a district with a significant Jewish constituency, this abstention created a cross-pressure between progressive activists critical of the resolution's framing of campus protests and pro-Israel constituents and donors.
Date: 2023-12-05 Added: 29 Apr 2026 ↗ SOURCE: Roll call: H.Res. 894
✓ verified Primary Source Voted nay on H.R. 7217 (Israel Security Supplemental Appropriations Act (Standalone Israel Aid)) on 2024-02-06: DeGette voted against a standalone $17.6 billion Israel aid bill, publicly citing its failure to include Ukraine aid, Gaza humanitarian assistance, and its offset via IRS funding cuts. While most House Democrats also voted no, her vote put her at odds with pro-Israel donors who have given her $457,637 over her career, creating cross-pressure visible in the public record.
Date: 2024-02-06 Added: 29 Apr 2026 ↗ SOURCE: Roll call: H.R. 7217
✓ verified Primary Source Voted yea on H.R. 4639 (Fourth Amendment Is Not For Sale Act) on 2024-04-17: DeGette voted yes for this privacy bill prohibiting law enforcement from buying data from data brokers to circumvent the Fourth Amendment, while a majority of House Democrats voted no. The bill passed 219-199. One of only 25 times (2.5%) she broke with her party in the 118th Congress — and one of the most substantively significant party defections on her record.
Date: 2024-04-17 Added: 29 Apr 2026 ↗ SOURCE: Roll call: H.R. 4639
