Peculiar Interests

Interest categories

Declarations are grouped into fourteen categories. Choose one to see entries from both chambers. The requirements are set out in the House resolution and Senate resolution. Item 13 differs between chambers: the House asks about memberships that could create a conflict; the Senate asks about office-holding and donations.
