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: Texas's 38th Congressional District covers western and northern Harris County including Houston suburbs of Jersey Village, Cypress, Tomball, Greater Katy, Klein, and the Memorial Villages. Created in 2022 redistricting, the district is solidly Republican (Cook PVI R+22 to R+26). The population of approximately 788,000 is majority-minority (52.9% White, 27.2% Hispanic, 10.4% Black, 10.3% Asian). The median household income of $102,662 is well above the national average, with a homeownership rate of 65% and poverty at 6.7%. The district is highly educated (50.5% hold a bachelor's degree or higher). The economy is anchored by the energy sector (Houston is the global energy capital), healthcare, retail, and professional services. Hunt won reelection with 62.9% in 2024.

✓ verified Primary Source Voted abstain_unverified on H.R. 8035 (Ukraine Security Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2024 ($61 billion Ukraine military aid)) on 2024-04-20: Hunt did not vote on the Ukraine aid package, after having consistently voted against Ukraine assistance and calling it an 'endless proxy war.' His district's energy sector (Oil & Gas is his #2 donor industry at $282,300) could benefit from sustained high energy prices amid the conflict. His non-vote avoided taking a recorded position on a bill that passed 311-112 with 101 Republicans in favor. The abstention reflects cross-pressure between anti-interventionist rhetoric, donor interests, and NATO-allied Houston business community expectations.
Date: 2024-04-20 Added: 28 Apr 2026 ↗ RECORDS: Roll call: H.R. 8035
✓ verified Primary Source Voted yea_unverified on H.R. 23 (Illegitimate Court Counteraction Act (ICC sanctions over Netanyahu arrest warrant)) on 2025-01-09: Hunt voted to sanction the ICC for issuing arrest warrants against Israeli officials. His #1 career donor is AIPAC ($56,724 in 2023-2024), and he told AIPAC in 2022 that Israel is America's 'one true ally.' The vote aligned directly with his top donor's lobbying priority. The bill passed 243-140.
Date: 2025-01-09 Added: 28 Apr 2026 ↗ RECORDS: Roll call: H.R. 23
✓ verified Partially Corroborated Voted yea_unverified on H.R. 4763 (Financial Innovation and Technology for the 21st Century Act (FIT21 crypto regulation)) on 2024-05-22: Hunt voted for the crypto industry's top legislative priority, consistent with all 9 of his pro-crypto votes. His Securities & Investment sector donors contributed $132,991 in the 2023-2024 cycle. The vote benefited the financial sector interests funding his campaign, making this a donor-aligned pattern on digital asset legislation.
✓ verified Primary Source Voted nay on H.R. 3746 (Fiscal Responsibility Act of 2023 (debt ceiling suspension / spending cuts)) on 2023-05-31: Hunt voted against raising the debt ceiling, joining 71 House Republicans while 149 supported the deal. Default would have devastated the Houston economy—energy, healthcare, and real estate in his district—and jeopardized Social Security and Medicare for constituents. His stated reason was that the deal 'fell short of my expectations' on spending cuts, prioritizing fiscal messaging over constituent material interests in avoiding default.
