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: Missouri's 8th Congressional District encompasses 28 counties across rural Southeast and South Central Missouri, including the Bootheel region, Cape Girardeau, and Rolla. It is the poorest congressional district in Missouri and one of the poorest in the nation, with a median household income of $60,159, a poverty rate of 15.5 percent, and only 20.8 percent holding a bachelor's degree. The district is overwhelmingly White (87.8 percent) with a median age of 40.3 and 72.3 percent homeownership. The economy is anchored in healthcare and social assistance (57,230 workers), manufacturing (43,757), and retail trade (42,474). Agriculture, particularly rice, cotton, and soybeans, dominates the Bootheel. The seat is safely Republican (R+55).
Added: 02 May 2026
✓ verified AI Inference Voted nay_unverified on H.R. 4346 (CHIPS and Science Act of 2022) on 2022-07-27: Against constituent interest: Smith's district employs 43,757 workers in manufacturing — the second-largest employment sector. The CHIPS Act invested $52 billion in domestic semiconductor manufacturing, promising manufacturing job growth. Smith voted NAY, opposing a bill that would directly benefit a core constituency industry. The AFL-CIO and CWA both supported the bill as a manufacturing and jobs measure.
Date: 2022-07-27 Added: 02 May 2026
✓ verified AI Inference Voted yea_unverified on H.R. 7217 (Israel Security Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2024) on 2024-02-06: Donor-aligned: Smith joined all but 4 Republicans voting YEA on $17.6 billion in standalone Israel military aid. The vote aligned with his top-five career donor American Israel Public Affairs Cmte ($84,850 total). Smith also took an AIPAC-sponsored trip to Israel in 2015 and coauthored multiple pro-Israel resolutions in 2023.
Date: 2024-02-06 Added: 02 May 2026
✓ verified Primary Source Voted nay on H.R. 8035 (Ukraine Security Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2024) on 2024-04-20: Reversal: Smith voted in favor of Ukraine aid in 2022 (Ukraine Democracy Defense Lend-Lease Act, 2022 Ukraine Supplemental) but voted NAY on the 2024 supplemental. The GOPforUkraine profile downgraded him to D- grade. Smith had previously stated 'Putin's aggression absolutely needs to be dealt with' but voted against the aid package supported by 311 members. Prior votes: YEA on S.3522 (2022-04-28) and H.R.7691 (2022-05-10).
Date: 2024-04-20 Added: 02 May 2026 ↗ SOURCE: Roll call: H.R.8035
✓ verified Primary Source Voted yea on H.R. 2811 (Limit, Save, Grow Act of 2023) on 2023-04-26: Cross-pressure: Smith represents Missouri's poorest congressional district (median income $60,159, poverty rate 15.5 percent). The bill would slash domestic spending by $144 billion, risking Medicaid coverage for 10 million low-income Americans and eliminating food assistance for millions — while his district has heavy Medicaid reliance. Simultaneously, his top donor sectors (Securities & Investment, Insurance) benefit from reduced government spending and lower taxes. Constituent interests in social safety-net programs pulled against donor-aligned fiscal conservatism.
Date: 2023-04-26 Added: 02 May 2026 ↗ SOURCE: Roll call: H.R. 2811
✓ verified Primary Source Voted yea on H.R. 3746 (Fiscal Responsibility Act of 2023 (Debt Ceiling Deal)) on 2023-05-31: Reversal: In 2013, Smith said 'I cannot support this legislation' on raising the debt limit and urged 'cut up the credit cards.' A decade later as Ways and Means Chairman, he voted YEA on the bipartisan debt-ceiling deal negotiated by Speaker McCarthy and President Biden. Prior vote: NAY on debt limit increase October 16, 2013 (source: https://jasonsmith.house.gov/2013/10/16/congressman-jason-smith-to-vote-against-debt-ceiling-hike/).
