What Congressional Progressive Caucus's recorded federal activity shows
Congressional Progressive Caucus is an outside-spending committee: rather than contributing to candidates' committees, it reported $673K in independent expenditures to the Federal Election Commission - $673K advocating for candidates and $0 opposing them, across 3 races. By law these expenditures are made independently of, and uncoordinated with, any campaign, and they are not subject to contribution limits, which is how a single committee can deploy this scale of money. They are reported here separately from contributions because they are a fundamentally different mechanism of political influence.
On the campaign side, Congressional Progressive Caucus's PAC contributions reached 23 federal politicians, led by Evan Low at $15K.

What is "combined activity" and how is it calculated?
Combined activity (internally total_influence) is a convenience sum of three different official populations: FEC campaign contributions (2024 election cycle), Senate LDA lobbying expenditures (2023 and 2024 filing years, summed), and USAspending federal contract obligations (fiscal year 2024). It is a cross-dataset discovery index only, not causation, effectiveness, or political influence. Channel dollars are shown side by side; see /methodology#cross-stage-populations.
