Since 2000, political donations from the richest 100 Americans have increased nearly 140x.
They collectively spent over $1B in 2024, amounting to 1 in every 13 dollars spent during the election.

I swore an oath to the Constitution in 1986. I've upheld it through 25 years of service and every day since I retired.
