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: Florida's 27th Congressional District covers Miami-Dade County including Coral Gables, Key Biscayne, and portions of Miami, representing one of the most heavily Hispanic districts in the country with 73.5% Hispanic population (primarily Cuban-American with significant Nicaraguan, Colombian, and Venezuelan communities). The district has 54.2% foreign-born residents, 76% non-English-speaking households, and a median household income of $78,952 with 13% poverty rate. The economy centers on healthcare, professional/technical services, and retail trade, with highest-paying sectors in management, finance, and professional services. Property values are high ($579,100 median) while homeownership is moderate (50.1%). The district voted 56.1% for Trump in 2024, making it a Republican-leaning seat with significant progressive pockets in Coral Gables and Miami Beach.
Added: 02 May 2026
✓ verified Primary Source Voted nay on H.R. 5376 (Inflation Reduction Act of 2022) on 2022-08-12: Salazar voted against the IRA's clean energy investments and Medicare drug price negotiation provisions while her district has significant Cuban-American elderly population who would benefit from reduced medication costs. The vote aligned with fossil fuel donors and pharmaceutical industry interests over constituent healthcare interests.
Date: 2022-08-12 Added: 02 May 2026 ↗ RECORDS: Roll call: H.R. 5376
✓ verified Primary Source Voted yea on H.R. 2 (Secure the Border Act of 2023) on 2023-05-11: Salazar voted for hardline immigration restriction while representing FL-27, which has 76% non-English-speaking households and 54.2% foreign-born population — many of whom are her constituents' family members. The donor-aligned vote (restriction lobby) conflicts with the district's immigrant-heavy demographic where border enforcement directly affects families.
Date: 2023-05-11 Added: 02 May 2026 ↗ RECORDS: Roll call: H.R. 2
✓ verified Primary Source Voted yea on H.R. 2670 (National Defense Authorization Act FY 2024) on 2023-07-27: Salazar voted for the $886 billion defense authorization while representing FL-27 with significant veteran population and military-adjacent Miami defense contractors. The donor-aligned vote benefits defense industry PACs who fund her campaign, while her district's median income ($78,952) and poverty rate (13%) suggest federal resources could better serve constituent social services.
Date: 2023-07-27 Added: 02 May 2026 ↗ RECORDS: Roll call: H.R. 2670
✓ verified Primary Source [disclosure] In June 2022, Salazar failed to properly disclose a stock trade in Cano Health Inc. (up to $500,000) within the legally required 45-day window, filing the disclosure more than two months late while serving on the Financial Services Committee with oversight of financial markets.
✓ verified Primary Source [statement] In April 2020, Salazar publicly stated: 'How can we trust her [Donna Shalala] to represent us in Miami or oversee $2 trillion in government funds while she violates and skirts federal law with her own finances' — using Shalala's STOCK Act violation as a campaign attack highlighting corruption and financial misconduct.
✓ verified Partially Corroborated Salazar's spokesperson stated her team 'worked closely with Ethics Committee staff' and claimed 'there was no guidance' regarding the SPAC transaction disclosure requirement, requesting the committee waive any fine — standard penalty is $200 for late disclosure.
✓ verified Partially Corroborated In April 2020, while campaigning against incumbent Donna Shalala, Salazar publicly criticized Shalala for STOCK Act violations, stating: 'How can we trust her to represent us in Miami or oversee $2 trillion in government funds while she violates and skirts federal law with her own finances.' She then committed the same violation herself within two years of taking office.
✓ verified Primary Source Rep. Maria Elvira Salazar violated the STOCK Act by failing to disclose a stock trade in Cano Health Inc. (up to $500,000 value received through a SPAC transaction) until more than two months past the 45-day legal deadline. The trade was executed February 14, 2022; disclosure was filed June 10, 2022 — approximately two months late.
✓ verified Partially Corroborated Maria Elvira Salazar filed filing with the SEC on 2021-06-25. Accession number: N/A.
