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 Primary Source Voted yea on H.Res.845 (Censuring Representative Rashida Tlaib for comments on the Israel-Hamas war) on 2023-11-07: Ellzey joined 234 Republicans and 22 Democrats in voting to censure Tlaib, the only Palestinian American in Congress. The vote aligned with his top donor AIPAC's priorities and reinforced his consistently pro-Israel voting record.

✓ verified Primary Source Voted yea on H.R.3746 (Fiscal Responsibility Act of 2023 (debt ceiling suspension with SNAP work requirements and discretionary spending caps)) on 2023-05-31: Ellzey voted to avert default, stating 'Republicans control one-half of one-third of the federal government.
