THE FINE PRINT, PLAINLY
- Capitol Trail is an independent project — not a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. Donations are support for the work, not tax-deductible charitable contributions.
- Support never changes the data. The numbers come from official records and the methodology is public — no donor, subscriber, or supporter can buy a different answer.
- Not affiliated with any party, campaign, or government agency.
