Independent by design
Every recorded contribution, in the open.
I’m asking the city to account for every dollar. It’s only fair that my campaign does the same. Every contribution our treasurer records is published here, along with anything we decline or return and the reason why. That includes candidate and family funding as well as outside contributions. Small contributions are included too: give this campaign five dollars and your name goes on this page, so please know that before you give.
State law already requires campaigns to file contribution reports. Those filings are public record, but they arrive in batches and they’re hard to read. In the final stretch, from August 5 through Election Day, contributions that reach $1,000 from a single source get reported within 24 hours. Smaller amounts that arrive after the last pre-election report closes on October 17 may not appear in a state filing until February 1, 2027, which is after the votes are counted. See the state filing schedule (opens in a new window). This page is voluntary and plain, and the official filings with the City Clerk remain the legal record. If you ever spot something here that doesn’t square with my no-developer-money standard, email me and ask. I’ll answer.

Declined or returned
Nothing yet. If a contribution ever arrives from a developer, their company, or their principals, it goes back, and the return gets logged here.
The standard
I don’t take money from developers. Not local ones, not out-of-town ones, not their companies or their principals. Menifee’s council has a formal pledge on exactly this, and as of this writing the city’s own pledge page lists just two signatures on it. I’ll sign it, and I’ll hold to it.
