Carson, André

Carson, André is a Democratic Representative representing Indiana, District 7. They serve on 3 committees, including House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure, House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence and House Select Committee on the Strategic Competition Between the United States and the Chinese Communist Party.

They have raised $510K in campaign contributions, with most of it from individual donors. The biggest industry source is communications/electronics, contributing $90K. Organizations spend $375.8 million lobbying on topics their committees oversee. The biggest areas are transportation and aviation. This reflects the lobbying ecosystem around their committee work, not money paid to them directly.

They rarely miss a vote, participating in 95% of roll calls. They frequently work across the aisle, with 51% of their co-sponsored bills involving members of the other party.

They have filed 24 stock transaction disclosures since 2007. These are required by the STOCK Act, which mandates members of Congress report securities trades. 2 former staff members from their office now work as lobbyists. Combined, they represent $60K in lobbying activity. Outside groups (like Super PACs) have spent money on their races: $10 spent supporting them. This spending is independent of their campaign.

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