Tracking the flow of American political influence, one dollar at a time.
A public-interest project tracking where money flows in American politics. From campaign donors and super PACs to lobbying firms and nonprofit shell orgs, we follow the trail so you can stay informed. Using public records, open data, and verified sources, we connect the dots between influence and policy so you can see who’s really shaping decisions.
Understanding who funds what gives you a clearer view of how decisions get made — and who they’re really serving.
Political donations, lobbying, and financial influence aren’t just background noise — they shape the laws we live under, the candidates we see, and the causes that get traction.
By surfacing this information, we’re giving you tools to recognize patterns, ask better questions, and stay informed in a way that actually connects the dots.
