Office spending
What this member's House office spent each year from its allowance, including interns, from the House's quarterly Statement of Disbursements. Beside it, the typical office: the median across every member that year.
| Year | Total | Staff pay | Travel | Rent and utilities | Printing | Other | Typical office | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2016 | $1.2 million | $1.0 million | $36,394 | $60,827 | $4,208 | $581 | $41,802 | $1.2 million |
Years run from January 3. Bills for a year are often paid early the next year, so a recent year can still grow. Staff pay is the office's total; individual salaries are not shown here.
Party, state and chamber are those of this member's most recent term. Bills and cosponsorships are held from the 107th Congress onwards and recorded votes from the 101st, so a member who served before those points will show fewer than they filed, or none. Committee service is held from the 107th Congress onwards, dated from the House and Senate resolutions and Congressional Record notices that seat and remove members. Subcommittee assignments are made inside each committee and carry no official date, so a subcommittee seat is shown from the first to the last printed hearing, Congressional Directory edition or official roster that lists the member. Vote counts cover roll calls tied to a bill; the chambers also vote on procedure and nominations, which are not listed here. Office, telephone and website are not shown for a member who has left, because the ones on file were theirs while serving. Records come from Congress.gov and the Biographical Directory of Congress.
