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: Illinois's 15th Congressional District stretches across central Illinois, encompassing all or parts of 33 counties including the cities of Quincy, Springfield (partial), Champaign-Urbana (partial), Danville, Charleston, and Mattoon. Home to approximately 746,652 constituents, the district is overwhelmingly rural, agricultural, and white — 90.6% White (Non-Hispanic) with only 3.05% Hispanic and a small Black population. The median household income is $73,993 — approximately double the $37,585 national median — with a median home value of $155,600 (far below the national median of $303,400). The poverty rate is 6.7% per LegisLetter but 10.3% per Data USA — above the Illinois state average of 9.5%. Homeownership is 77.3% (well above the 65.5% national average), the median age is 42.3, and only 26.2% of adults hold a bachelor's degree — below the 33.7% national average. The district is 99.1% U.S. citizen, with only 1.95% foreign-born (14,600 people) — one of the lowest immigrant populations of any congressional district. The economy is anchored in healthcare and social assistance (54,149 workers), manufacturing (42,851), and retail trade (36,860), with major employers including Blessing Health System, Quincy Medical Group, University of Illinois, and agricultural operations. The district has a Cook PVI of R+20 to R+22, making it the most Republican district in Illinois and among the most Republican in the Midwest. Trump carried the district by over 65% in both his presidential bids. Miller won the 2024 general election unopposed after defeating two primary challengers. She has announced her intention to run for U.S. Senate in 2026.

✓ verified Primary Source Voted nay on H.R. 5376 (Vote Against Awarding Congressional Gold Medals to U.S. Capitol Police (June 2021)) on 2021-06-15: Miller was one of only 21 House Republicans to vote against awarding Congressional Gold Medals to the U.S. Capitol Police and Metropolitan Police Department for defending the Capitol during the January 6 insurrection. She was the only member of the Illinois delegation to oppose the resolution. The vote sparked widespread criticism from Illinois editorial boards and law enforcement groups. It is a revealing signal that, even for a member who voted to overturn electoral results on January 6, voting to honor the police who defended the Capitol was a bridge too far.
Date: 2021-06-15 Added: 03 May 2026 ↗ SOURCE: Roll call: H.R. 5376
✓ verified AI Inference Voted nay on H.R. 2670 (National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2024) on 2023-07-14: Miller voted nay on the FY2024 NDAA — one of the few Republicans to oppose the traditionally bipartisan defense authorization. She cited a lack of accountability for the Afghanistan withdrawal, requiring women to register for the draft, and diversity training provisions. She also voted nay on the FY2022 NDAA. Her primary opponent Rodney Davis' campaign attacked her for voting 'against defense funding legislation' three times. This vote illustrates her consistent anti-establishment posture, even on traditionally bipartisan military funding.
Date: 2023-07-14 Added: 03 May 2026
✓ verified Primary Source Voted yea on H.R. 8034 (Israel Security Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2024 ($26 billion)) on 2024-04-20: Miller voted yea on $26.38 billion in military aid to Israel, splitting with her fellow Illinois Republican Mike Bost who voted nay. Her vote reflects a clear divergence from her Ukraine isolationism: support Israel aid while opposing Ukraine aid. The JTA reported that Miller 'accepted a donation from AIPAC last year' and 'has adopted harsher stances on Israel since announcing her run for Senate.' The vote illustrates the selective internationalism of the MAGA foreign policy: oppose aid for one democracy (Ukraine) while supporting aid for another (Israel). AIPAC strongly backed this bill.
Date: 2024-04-20 Added: 03 May 2026 ↗ SOURCE: Roll call: H.R. 8035
✓ verified Primary Source Voted yea on H.J.Res. 11 (Objection to Electoral College Certification — January 6, 2021) on 2021-01-06: Miller was one of 121 House Republicans who voted to sustain objections to Electoral College results hours after the Capitol was breached. She had announced her intention the day before, citing 'voter fraud' claims. Her district voted approximately 68% for Trump in the 2020 election — reflecting the heavily Republican orientation of a district Trump carried repeatedly — but the vote nonetheless placed her among the members who sought to overturn a certified presidential election. She defended the vote as standing for 'free and fair elections.'
Date: 2021-01-06 Added: 03 May 2026 ↗ SOURCE: Roll call: H.J.Res. 11
✓ verified Pending Review Voted yea on H.R. 1 (One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) — House passage, May and July 2025) on 2025-07-03: Miller called the OBBBA 'a once-in-a-generation victory for the American people' and the 'most pro-worker, pro-family, pro-America legislation' of her career. The CBO projected it would add $3.4 trillion to the deficit and cut approximately $1 trillion from Medicaid. Her IL-15 district has 6.7% poverty, a 10.3% Data USA poverty rate, and 54,149 healthcare workers — the largest employment sector. Constituent letters noted the bill would cut an estimated $800 million from Medicaid in her district alone, threatening the Blessing Health System and Quincy Medical Group. Miller previously promised constituents the GOP 'would never, ever cut' Medicaid, Medicare, or Social Security. She touted the bill as protecting SNAP by stripping benefits from 'illegal aliens' — a provision that was already federal law. The AFL-CIO gave her a 0% score for 2025. Only 2 Republicans voted nay. The Illinois Democratic Party called the bill 'a devastating blow to their constituents to appease Donald Trump and his billionaire backers.'
Date: 2025-07-03 Added: 03 May 2026
✓ verified Primary Source [disclosure] Miller has been 'obsessively focused on a single trans child in Naperville playing sports,' according to a constituent letter published in Muddy River News, noting that Naperville is in the Chicago suburbs — more than two hours' drive from the closest point of her district. 'Miller does not — I repeat, does not — represent Naperville. She represents us, or she would if she studied a map.'
✓ verified Primary Source [statement] At a Trump rally in Mendon, Illinois, celebrating the Supreme Court's Dobbs decision overturning Roe v. Wade, Miller told the crowd: 'President Trump, on behalf of all the MAGA patriots in America, I want to thank you for the historic victory for white life in the Supreme Court yesterday.' Her spokesman later said she 'intended to say victory for right to life' — but the line was delivered as 'white life,' a phrase that drew national condemnation from the NAACP, the Anti-Defamation League, and Gov. J.B. Pritzker.
✓ verified Primary Source [statement] Four days after being sworn into Congress, Miller told a rally outside the U.S. Capitol on January 5, 2021: 'Hitler was right about one thing. He said whoever has the youth has the future.' The comment drew swift condemnation from fellow Illinois Republicans, including Reps. Adam Kinzinger and Rodney Davis, and from the Illinois Holocaust Museum. Miller apologized two days later, saying 'some are trying to intentionally twist my words to mean something antithetical to my beliefs.'
✓ verified Pending Review [vote] Miller then voted yea on H.R. 1, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, on both May 22 and July 3, 2025. The Congressional Budget Office projected the bill would add $3.4 trillion to deficits and cut approximately $1 trillion from Medicaid—including an estimated $800 million from Medicaid in her own IL-15 district alone, according to constituent analyses. She touted the bill's anti-fraud measures for SNAP and Medicaid while dismissing the CBO estimates.
Date: 2025-07-03 Added: 03 May 2026
✓ verified Primary Source [statement] In a video posted to her newsletter subscribers before the House vote on the OBBBA, Miller tried to blame the 'liberal media' and 'Democrats' for the narrative that the GOP wanted to cut Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security. She promised these narratives were 'liberal lies' and the GOP 'would never, ever cut those services every single one of us is entitled to.'
✓ verified Partially Corroborated Miller serves on the House Committee on Agriculture and the Committee on Education and Labor. She is a mother of seven and grandmother of seventeen. She campaigned on making Trump tax cuts permanent, promoting Illinois agriculture, coal and oil production, pro-growth business policies, and border security.
✓ verified Primary Source Miller's 2026 IL-15 seat is rated Solid Republican with an R+100 LegisLetter rating. She has raised $976,000 for her reelection and faces no opposition in the primary. She previously won her 2024 general election unopposed.
✓ verified Primary Source Quiver Quantitative estimates Miller's net worth at $15.8 million as of July 2025 — the 66th highest in Congress. Miller operates a third-generation grain and cattle farm with her husband Chris and is one of the few remaining farmers in Congress. She has approximately $0 in publicly traded assets that Quiver can track in real time.
✓ verified Primary Source Miller's 2025 Q2 FEC disclosure reported $175,100 in new fundraising — 96.6% from individual donors — with $704,300 cash on hand. AIPAC does not appear among her top 20 contributors. However, the JTA reported she 'accepted a donation from AIPAC last year' and has 'adopted harsher stances on Israel since announcing her run for Senate.'
✓ verified Primary Source Top PAC contributors underscore her rural and agricultural base: American Crystal Sugar ($10,000), Illinois Corn Growers Assn ($7,500), Ameren Corp ($7,000), Associated Builders & Contractors ($5,000), National Assn of Home Builders ($5,000), Farm Credit Council ($5,000), National Cattlemen's Beef Assn ($5,000), National Auto Dealers Assn ($5,000), National Pork Producers Council ($2,500), and Archer Daniels Midland ($2,500).
✓ verified Primary Source 2024 cycle: Reported $368,184 in total payments. The leading conduit for small-dollar donations was WinRed at $133,814 (5,586 payments). The House Freedom Fund contributed $60,101 through 100 payments, while the Mary Miller Victory Committee joint-fundraising vehicle added $44,169.
