What they ask for — in their own terms
Make AI industry political spending visible, so voters can see who is paying for which candidate.
What they do
A public tracker of AI-related political spending built from FEC independent expenditure filings, updated daily, browsable by candidate, race and funder, with a published methodology.
What a newcomer can do
Look up your own district before you vote or donate, and send the funder page to your local journalist or representative.
Worth knowing
Demand Progress's own homepage does not list AI as a focus area — AI Money Watch is a discrete project, so do not assume donating to Demand Progress funds AI work. The tracker's figures ($75.5M raised by Leading the Future, ~$70M cash on hand as of January 2026) come from FEC filings and will differ from press reports of total pledged commitments.
