What these categories mean
Small individual donors
People whose giving stayed under $200 in total. The FEC does not require them to be named, so who they are is genuinely unknown — not merely unlisted.
Large individual donors
People whose giving passed $200, which is the point at which the campaign must report their name, employer and occupation.
PACs
Political action committees — corporate, trade, union and ideological. Money from an organisation rather than from a person.
Transfers in
Money moved in from another committee the candidate is authorised by, typically a joint fundraising committee.
Other and unclassified
The remainder once every category above is accounted for: federal funds, offsets, interest, and anything this site could not classify. It is a residual, not a kind of donor.

This is money the campaign itself received. It is not everything spent to win the seat. It excludes leadership PACs, and it excludes independent expenditures and other outside spending — money spent to elect or defeat a candidate by groups they may not lawfully coordinate with, which in a contested race can exceed everything shown above. It is not personal income or net worth, which are a separate filing altogether. Figures are as filed with the Federal Election Commission and are only as current as the last report, covering through June 30, 2026; a cycle still running is a partial count. Check this filing on fec.gov.

Personal finances

Separately from the campaign money above, Adam B. Schiff files a report about their own money: what they own, what they owe, what they earn outside Congress, and every stock trade they make. The law requires it, and every figure in it is a range rather than an amount — which is why the columns below are ranges too.

What they report owning, and owing
  • Reported assets$1.4M to $3.0M19 lines, 5 with no figure
  • Reported debts$450k to $1.0M3 lines

Every column is read from $0. The solid height is the total of the low ends of the bands the filer ticked; the pale cap runs on to the total of the high ends, and is the range the form allows — not a margin of error and not a guess. Assets less debts comes to $382k to $2.6M — a range, and not a net worth: the form does not ask about a personal residence that earns nothing, about congressional salary, or about the exact value of anything.

What the holdings are
  • Funds and managed accounts12 holdings, 2 with no figure$1.3M to $2.7M
  • Stocks and stock options1 holding$100k to $250k
  • Retirement, pensions and insurance4 holdings, 3 with no figure$15k to $50k
  • Bonds, cash and other securities2 holdings$2k to $30k
  • Every group$1.4M to $3.0M

A slice needs one number and a filer ticks a range, so each arc is its group’s floor — the total of the low ends they ticked — and the figure in the hole is the total of those floors. The band printed beside each group is the real answer, and it is wider than the arc. 5 holdings carry no figure at all and are in no arc.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics publishes no inflation rate for California: prices are collected from a sample built for the nation, the four Census regions and a handful of large metro areas, and nothing in it supports a state figure. The nearest published figure is the West region's, below. See inflation for the country and the four regions.

Every figure here is one its source published for Californiaitself — nothing is summed from the districts. Payroll jobs and the monthly unemployment rate are seasonally adjusted, and the two newest months of the payroll series are preliminary and get revised. Output is counted where production happens and income where people live, so the two say different things about the same state. An arrow is coloured by the direction its own measure counts as improvement — green on rising output, jobs, income and exports, green on a falling unemployment rate — and stays grey where there is no such direction to claim, as for imports and the count of businesses. The colour is not a claim about anybody.

US Census Bureau, American Community Survey; CDC WONDER, National Center for Health Statistics. Margins of error are at the 90% confidence level. An estimate is not a count. Every figure here is one its source published for California itself. Nothing is averaged up from the districts, because five of these indicators are medians and the average of medians is not a median, and nothing is summed from counties. No figure here is shown as a change since anybody took office: a state has two senators who took their seats in different years, so there is no single tenure to measure from.

Pick an indicator, and a second to compare it with. Where they share a unit and a scale they are read against one axis; where they do not, the second gets an axis of its own on the right — nothing is rebased or rescaled to make two units meet. Tick the box to draw them apart instead.

The "in 2025 dollars" figures are the published ones restated for inflation with the BLS Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U), U.S. city average, all items, annual average. A five-year estimate is published in the dollars of its final year, so 2016-2020 is adjusted from 2020 dollars. The adjustment is the same for every place in a period, so it changes no ranking; it says what a figure from an earlier period would be in today's money. It is not a local cost of living, and the margin of error is still the published one.

Nominal dollars as published for each period -- not inflation-adjusted. A median cannot be averaged across areas, so this is published district-level data only.

This is a median or an index. It is published as measured and is never re-aggregated from smaller areas — averaging medians does not produce a median.
