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: Louisiana's 6th Congressional District was created in 2024 as a new majority-Black district running roughly 250 miles from Baton Rouge northwest along the Red River and Mississippi River corridors to Shreveport. It encompasses parts of East Baton Rouge, Pointe Coupee, Avoyelles, Rapides, Natchitoches, and Caddo parishes. With a population of 757,854, it is 53.2% Black, 37% White, and a majority-minority district. The Cook PVI is D+15. Median household income is $48,696 — well below the national median — with a 19.7% poverty rate and 8.8% unemployment. Only 22.7% hold a bachelor's degree, and 58.8% of residents are homeowners. The district faces deep structural challenges: high healthcare costs, housing shortages, pollution from industrial plants, and long commutes. Major economic drivers include healthcare, government, manufacturing, and agriculture. The district was drawn after a federal court ordered Louisiana to create a second majority-Black district, and its legality was argued before the U.S. Supreme Court.
