Funding profile

Patrick Ryan

Democrat · Representative for New York’s 18th district

2026 election · in progress · reporting period January 1, 2025 to June 30, 2026

11%

of this member’s campaign funding came from political action committees — organized groups rather than individual voters. That is $527,000 of $4.7 million raised so far.

Every figure here comes from this member’s filings with the Federal Election Commission, unchanged. The link opens the Commission’s own page for the same election and the same full reporting period, so the totals should match line for line. Check this profile against FEC.gov

Money spent about this member

Outside groups may spend without limit for or against a candidate, provided they do not coordinate with the campaign. This money never appears in Ryan’s own filings, and Ryan has no legal control over it.

This is not a donation. Nobody gave this money to Ryan. Outside groups spent it on advertising for or against Ryan in the 2026 election. We report it separately from campaign funding because the law treats it separately — and because a group spending against a candidate is plainly not funding them.

$906

was spent on this race by outside groups in 2026. The campaign itself raised $4.7 million. $906 supported Ryan; $0 opposed Ryan.

What is not published yet

We would rather show less than show something unsourced.

Industry-by-industry breakdowns, named individual donors, and how this member’s votes align with the groups funding them are all planned. They are absent because we have not verified them, and a funding profile is only worth reading if every line on it has been checked. Our methodology explains what we verify before publishing.
