Source: Wisconsin Ethics Commission campaign finance filings, CFIS filer id 16069. Totals count receipts to sitting legislators only, from each member's time in office; giving to former members, challengers, or before a member took office is not shown. A committee's money comes from its own contributors; a contribution is not an endorsement of any particular vote. Full methodology
