THE MONEY BEHIND THE VOTE
Final passage: 402 YEA / 36 NAY · each side's top donor industries (all-cycles totals to those members)
⬆ YEA voters — top donor industries
⬇ NAY voters — top donor industries
Dollar figures are each industry's total contributions to those members across all tracked cycles — not money given for this bill. Correlation, not causation.
