Constituency Baseline — At-large OR (12 topics)

15%

Avg Deviation

High Deviations

Public Lands and Wildfire Management

District priority: 92/100 Alignment: +80

District pattern: Oregon voters broadly support active federal forest management, wildfire mitigation funding, and protection of public lands; rural and urban constituencies differ on logging intensity but agree on fire prevention spending

Merkley has consistently supported wildfire funding and public lands protections, but has at times prioritized environmental preservation over the aggressive forest-thinning and salvage-logging measures favored by rural eastern Oregon constituents

Housing Affordability and Homelessness

District priority: 90/100 Alignment: +70

District pattern: Portland metro and statewide voters rank housing costs and homelessness as a top-tier concern; strong support for federal investment in affordable housing and mental health services

Merkley has supported federal housing funding but has been less visible on the specific homelessness and housing supply issues that dominate Oregon's urban policy debate; constituents may perceive underrepresentation on this top-tier concern

Healthcare Access and Prescription Drug Costs

District priority: 88/100 Alignment: +82

District pattern: Oregon voters strongly support ACA protections, Medicaid expansion, and drug price negotiation; healthcare ranks as a top concern in both urban and rural polling

Merkley's record broadly aligns with expansion of healthcare access, but he has not led on aggressive drug pricing reforms that rural Oregon constituents consistently rank as a top priority

Abortion and Reproductive Rights

District priority: 87/100 Alignment: +92

District pattern: Oregon is a strong pro-choice state; voters codified abortion rights in state law and oppose federal restrictions

Climate Change and Clean Energy

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.
