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.

With approximately 733,304 residents, it is a majority-minority district: 41.2% Asian, 27.1% White, 26.4% Hispanic — the highest Asian-population-share district in the continental United States. Median household income is $80,301, above the national median but below many neighboring NYC suburbs.

Cook PVI rates the district D+23 (Solid Seat). Meng has held the seat since 2013, facing only two serious Democratic primary challenges in that time.

✓ verified AI Inference Voted nay_unverified on H.R. 7521 (Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act (TikTok divestiture/ban)) on 2024-03-13: Meng voted nay on the TikTok ban, one of only 7 NYC House Democrats and 50 Democrats total to oppose the bill.

The bill passed 352-65 with overwhelming bipartisan support. Meng's vote aligned with her district's demographic interests against strong bipartisan and national-security-establishment pressure.

Date: 2025-01-07 Added: 01 May 2026

✓ verified Primary Source [disclosure] American Israel Public Affairs Cmte is Meng's top career contributor at $500,598 — more than six times her second-largest donor — and gave $85,250 in the 2023-2024 cycle alone, over 11 times the next-largest contributor.
✓ verified Primary Source [statement] Meng stated her stance on Israel is 'in solidarity with the significant Jewish American population' in her district, framing it as constituent representation rather than donor influence.
✓ verified Primary Source [statement] When asked whether AIPAC campaign contributions influenced her refusal to support a Gaza ceasefire, Meng replied: 'No, that is absolutely not the reason. Like many elected officials, my campaign accepts contributions from a wide range of people. Some of whom, yes, are affiliated with AIPAC and with pro-Israel causes.'
