Members of the committee(s) the bill was referred to
Bill allows government to use data to help recruit families for federal programs.
The problem
Families may not know about federal assistance programs available to them. Data could help government reach eligible families more effectively.
The proposal
Authorizes federal agencies to use data and technology to identify and contact families who may qualify for federal assistance or benefit programs.
The impact
Families may learn about benefits they qualify for. Raises questions about data privacy and government use of personal information.
Families struggling financially could discover programs they didn't know existed. More efficient outreach means more eligible people receive help faster.
Data-driven targeting could help government reach poorest families first. Fewer people missing out on aid they qualify for.
Focused outreach costs less than blanket advertising. Government resources go further helping more people.
Government collecting and sharing personal data raises privacy questions. People may not want government using their information this way.
Government databases may have wrong information about people. Innocent people could be contacted or wrongly identified as program-eligible.
Bill details about data use and safeguards are not explained. Unclear what controls exist to prevent misuse.
Families may receive frequent calls or letters from government. No clear rules about how often people can be contacted.

Individual contributions, grouped by employer · FEC
Where their individual donors work · 2026 cycle
Money from people who work there, not from the company. Not tied to this bill.
Itemized individual contributions via FEC, grouped by the employer each contributor self-reported. Companies and unions cannot contribute to federal candidates from their treasuries, so these totals are money from people who work at an employer — never from the organization itself. They are campaign contributions covering a full election cycle and are not connected to this bill.
