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: Virginia's 1st Congressional District encompasses a vast swath of eastern Virginia, stretching from the outer Northern Virginia suburbs (parts of Henrico and Chesterfield Counties) through the Northern Neck and Middle Peninsula, across the York and James Rivers to Williamsburg, and down to the Hampton Roads area including parts of Newport News and Hampton. It also includes the Eastern Shore (Accomack and Northampton Counties). With approximately 804,410 residents, it is a competitive Republican-leaning district (Cook PVI R+6) that Wittman has represented since 2007. The district has a median household income of $104,610 — more than double the national median — and a poverty rate of 6.43%. The population is 70.1% White (Non-Hispanic), 12.7% Black, 5.9% Asian, and 5.82% Hispanic, with 96.2% U.S. citizens and 8.72% foreign-born. Median home values are $407,900 with a 76.8% homeownership rate. The economy is anchored by military installations (Fort Eustis, Naval Weapons Station Yorktown, Langley Air Force Base), NASA Langley Research Center, defense contracting, tourism (Colonial Williamsburg, Busch Gardens), agriculture (poultry, soybeans, corn on the Eastern Shore), and shipbuilding (Newport News Shipbuilding). The district is car-dependent: 76.8% drive alone with a 26.8-minute average commute. Key local concerns include military base retention, Chesapeake Bay environmental protection, rural healthcare access, and the expansion of the Richmond suburbs into historically rural counties. The district's inclusion of Henrico County has made it increasingly competitive — it shifted from R+15 to R+6, and the DCCC has elevated it to a 2026 target seat. Wittman's opponent Shannon Taylor, the Henrico County Commonwealth's Attorney, has made his Medicaid vote, personal tax savings, and stock trading central campaign issues.

✓ verified Primary Source Voted yea (trades) on Various (Stock Trading Record — $2.56M+ Traded Between 2015-2023 While Serving on Armed Services Committee) on 2023-12-31: Wittman traded $2.56M+ in stocks between 2015-2023, including shares of defense contractor companies while sitting as Vice Chairman of the House Armed Services Committee. Benzinga tracked his trades as outperforming the market by 95.6% over a 12-month period — among the highest returns in Congress. He failed to properly disclose trades for nearly a year in violation of the STOCK Act, attributing the lapse to a third-party investment manager. The New York Times identified Wittman as one of the lawmakers with apparent conflicts of interest between committee positions and stock holdings. His net worth more than tripled during his congressional tenure.
✓ verified Primary Source Voted yea on H.R. 5371 (Continuing Appropriations and Extensions Act, 2026 — Ending the 43-Day Government Shutdown) on 2025-11-12: Wittman voted to end the longest government shutdown in U.S. history. During the shutdown, the Daily Beast reported he was 'caught fundraising at a swanky steakhouse' just hours before the shutdown began. His district includes federal employees at NASA Langley, Fort Eustis, and various military installations directly affected by the shutdown. The vote aligned with pragmatic governing but the fundraising juxtaposition drew sharp negative press — becoming a DCCC attack line in his newly targeted district.
Date: 2025-11-12 Added: 03 May 2026 ↗ SOURCE: Roll call: S. 5 / H.R. 29
✓ verified Primary Source Voted yea on H.R. 7567 (Farm, Food, and National Security Act of 2026 (Farm Bill) — On Passage) on 2026-04-30: Wittman voted Yea (224-200) with 209 of 212 Republicans. His district includes rural areas of the Northern Neck and Middle Peninsula with agricultural production. The bill preserved SNAP cuts from the OBBB — affecting food-insecure families in his 6.43% poverty-rate district. Only 3 Republicans voted Nay; 14 Democrats crossed to support. Wittman's vote was consistent with GOP conference unity, though his significant rural constituency made the farm provisions locally relevant.
Date: 2026-04-30 Added: 03 May 2026 ↗ RECORDS: Roll call: H.R. 7567
✓ verified Primary Source Voted yea on H.R. 22 (Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act — On Passage) on 2025-04-10: Wittman voted Yea (220-208) with all Republicans and 4 Democrats to require documentary proof of citizenship for voter registration. His district is 96.2% citizens — ID requirements create virtually no barriers for constituents. Only 4 Democrats joined all Republicans. The Virginia League of Conservation Voters urged constituents to tell Wittman to vote no. Wittman's vote aligned with the GOP conference and his Trump-endorsed identity, but his suburban Henrico and Chesterfield constituents — increasingly Democratic-leaning — opposed restrictive voting measures.
Date: 2025-04-10 Added: 03 May 2026 ↗ RECORDS: Roll call: H.R. 22 (119th Congress)
✓ verified Primary Source Voted yea on H.R. 8035 / H.R. 8036 / H.R. 8038 ($95 Billion Foreign Aid Package — Ukraine, Israel, Taiwan, and TikTok Ban (April 2024)) on 2024-04-20: Wittman was one of 101 House Republicans to vote for $61 billion in Ukraine aid, breaking with the majority of his party (112 Republicans voted Nay). He had previously authored legislation establishing a Special Inspector General for Ukraine aid and called Russia's invasion 'barbaric and inhumane.' As Vice Chairman of the House Armed Services Committee, his support carried institutional weight and distinguished him from MAGA isolationists. His defense-industry donors — Misc Defense ($248,311) and Defense Aerospace ($148,415) — had direct stakes in the military assistance. The vote positioned him as a national-security establishment Republican at odds with the Trump base in his R+6 district.

✓ verified Primary Source Voted yea on S. 5 / H.R. 29 (Laken Riley Act — On Passage) on 2025-01-22: Wittman voted Yea (264-159) with all Republicans and 46 Democrats to mandate ICE detention for undocumented immigrants charged with theft-related crimes. He released an official statement calling the bill necessary to prevent tragedies like Laken Riley's murder from happening 'to anyone in Virginia's First District.' His district is 96.2% citizens with 8.72% foreign-born — immigration enforcement has limited direct impact. The vote aligned with his Trump-endorsed conservative identity and his AIPAC donor support ($36,851, second-largest contributor).
Date: 2025-01-22 Added: 03 May 2026 ↗ SOURCE: Roll call: S. 5 / H.R. 29
✓ verified Primary Source Voted yea on H.R. 1 (One Big Beautiful Bill Act — On Motion to Concur in the Senate Amendment and Final Passage) on 2025-07-03: Wittman's Yea vote (218-214) is the defining vote of his 18-year congressional career. He was one of the two Virginia Republicans who signed letters vowing not to cut Medicaid — then voted for a bill the CBO found would cut approximately $930 billion from Medicaid and add $3-4 trillion to the deficit. An estimated 260,000 Virginians were projected to lose health coverage. Simultaneously, ITEP found Wittman would personally save up to $59,300 annually from the bill's pass-through business deduction applied to his $1.5M Outer Banks beach rental — the highest personal tax savings of any lawmaker who voted for the bill. His district's 6.43% poverty rate and rural hospitals — including Rappahannock General Hospital in his district, identified as at risk of closure — made the Medicaid cuts particularly impactful. As Vice Chairman of the House Armed Services Committee, his institutional vote carried weight. His top donors — Misc Defense ($248,311), Defense Aerospace ($148,415), and Altria Group ($32,560) — strongly supported the bill's defense spending and corporate tax provisions. End Citizens United named Wittman one of its 'Most Corrupt Politicians' for 2026, citing this vote. The DCCC elevated VA-01 to a targeted 2026 district. Wittman voted Yea on the May 22 first passage and again on the July 3 final concurrence.
Date: 2025-07-03 Added: 03 May 2026 ↗ SOURCE: Roll call: H.R. 1 (119th)
✓ verified Primary Source [disclosure] In August 2023, Wittman reported stock trades nearly one year late in violation of the STOCK Act's 45-day disclosure requirement. The Denver Gazette documented that he failed to properly disclose up to $45,000 in stock purchases and sales. Wittman attributed his late disclosures to a financial adviser 'who implements trades at their own discretion without my consultation or input.' The same report noted Wittman 'traded shares of defense contractor companies while sitting on the House Armed Services Committee.'
✓ verified Primary Source [platform] Wittman authored legislation establishing the Office of the Special Inspector General for Ukrainian aid, stating: 'I remain steadfast in supporting Ukraine's fierce fight to maintain its independence...Efforts by the United States and our European allies throughout the last year have clearly demonstrated to Putin his actions will not go without consequences, and I believe we should continue to take strong actions to hold Putin responsible.' He was one of 101 Republicans to vote Yea on $60.8 billion in Ukraine aid on April 20, 2024.
✓ verified Primary Source [disclosure] The ITEP analysis found Wittman would personally save between $19,900 and $59,300 annually from the OBBB's extension of the pass-through business income deduction — applied to his Outer Banks beach rental property generating up to $1 million annually. His estimated tax savings were the highest of all lawmakers who voted for the bill, while middle-income earners would average tax breaks of between $40 and $50.
✓ verified Primary Source [vote] Wittman voted Yea on the OBBB, which the CBO projected would add $3-4 trillion to the deficit over 10 years. He had previously been recognized as a fiscal conservative, receiving the 'Watchdog of the Treasury' award multiple times for his commitment to opposing tax increases.
✓ verified Primary Source [disclosure] The Congressional Budget Office projected the OBBB would cut approximately $930 billion from Medicaid over 10 years and cause millions to lose health coverage. The Virginia Democratic Party documented that 'at least 260,000 Virginians are estimated to lose insurance coverage.' The legislation could 'reverse Medicaid expansion for 630,000 Virginians.' Wittman's own Rappahannock General Hospital — a rural hospital in his district — was identified as at risk of closure due to the bill's cuts.
✓ verified Primary Source [vote] On May 22, 2025, Wittman voted Yea on H.R. 1 (the One Big Beautiful Bill Act), releasing a press statement headlined 'Wittman Votes to Protect Medicaid, Deliver Relief For Virginians.' He claimed the bill 'strengthens Medicaid for Americans who need it most' and 'protects resources for pregnant women, single mothers, children, seniors, and individuals with disabilities.' He voted Yea again on final passage on July 3, 2025.
✓ verified Primary Source [statement] On June 24, 2025, Wittman sent another letter to House and Senate leadership reiterating his commitment to 'protecting Medicaid coverage for vulnerable communities,' stating the final reconciliation bill 'should not come at the expense of vulnerable populations including pregnant women, children, the elderly, and individuals with disabilities.' He wrote: 'I have fought to protect and preserve Medicaid for Virginia's most vulnerable...This fight is personal to me. I was adopted at eight months old.'
✓ verified Primary Source [statement] On April 16, 2025, Wittman signed a letter to House leadership stating he could not support legislation that 'includes any reduction in Medicaid coverage for vulnerable populations' and that protecting Medicaid is 'essential for the vulnerable constituents we were elected to represent.'
