Bennet, Michael F.

Bennet, Michael F. is a Democratic Senator representing Colorado. They serve on 4 committees, including Senate Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry, Senate Committee on Finance and Senate Committee on Rules and Administration.

They have raised $77K in campaign contributions, with most of it from individual donors. The biggest industry source is communications/electronics, contributing $26K. Organizations spend $1.2 billion lobbying on topics their committees oversee. The biggest areas are taxation and trade. This reflects the lobbying ecosystem around their committee work, not money paid to them directly.

They almost never miss a vote, participating in 100% of roll calls. They frequently work across the aisle, with 56% of their co-sponsored bills involving members of the other party.

4 former staff members from their office now work as lobbyists. Combined, they represent $200K in lobbying activity. Outside groups (like Super PACs) have spent money on their races: $105 spent supporting them. This spending is independent of their campaign.

Overall, they have a lower-than-average financial footprint compared to other Senators. The biggest factors are former staff becoming lobbyists and campaign contributions.
