Senator Whitehouse's fundraising profile is heavily weighted toward individual donors, who account for 83 percent of his $5.4 million in direct contributions, with PACs and committees comprising 17 percent. His industry-tied contributions show pronounced reliance on the legal and lobbying sector, which represents 36 percent of economic-sector money, followed by securities and investment (13 percent) and health services (8 percent)—a pattern reinforced by his individual donor base, which similarly draws substantially from lawyers, lobbyists, and finance professionals. Over his tenure, he has filed 1,020 stock trades and recorded 114 votes in the chamber.

HOW WE ESTIMATE THIS
Estimated holdings start from the 2024 annual financial disclosure (each stock listed as a value range), rolled forward by trades disclosed since.
Everything is a range or estimate. The STOCK Act requires only broad dollar brackets (e.g. "$1,001–$15,000"), never exact amounts, share counts, or prices. Figures shown are midpoints.
"Filed after" is the gap between the trade and its disclosure. Over 45 days (⚠) is outside the STOCK Act's filing window.
Source. U.S. House Clerk periodic transaction reports & annual financial disclosures (public record). Not real-time; profit/loss can't be computed from disclosures.
