Trent Kelly (R-MS) serves on the House Committee on Armed Services, which has jurisdiction over the Defense & Aerospace sector. Defense & Aerospace comprises 19.9% of his identifiable donor base ($0.66M), ranking 9th among Republican members in donor concentration from this sector.

How we built this: a statistical pattern surfaced from public records — FEC campaign finance, Senate/House Lobbying Disclosure Act filings, and Congress.gov. The donor concentration and the legislative action are concurrent facts; this does not imply contributions caused the action, that the member acted improperly, or that the bill specifically benefits the named sector.
