What to ask the senator's office

  1. What public event triggered the spike — fundraising dinner, scandal response, viral floor speech?
  2. Which JFC, host committee, or lobbyist organized the event, and which industry's donors attended?
  3. Did the senator's voting pattern in the 30 days after the spike align with the dominant donor industry?
