For Lobbying & Government Affairs Firms
Pull any member's complete
funding history in seconds.
FFID consolidates FY2022–FY2026 of House CPF and Senate CDS data into one searchable platform — so lobbying and government affairs firms can answer client questions in minutes, not hours.
Three questions every client asks.
FFID answers all three — faster than pulling PDFs from committee websites.
Client asks
“What did comparable jurisdictions receive?”
Search by state, category, and recipient type to benchmark peer-organization funding. Show clients exactly what similar organizations received — by agency, amount, and fiscal year.
Search comparable awards →Client asks
“What has our member historically funded?”
Pull any member's complete CPF and CDS history — total dollars, project types, recipient patterns — across five fiscal years. What used to take hours of PDF research takes one search.
Browse member directory →Client asks
“Is our ask competitive?”
See enacted awards by agency and category to anchor a client request in real funded precedent. Know the range before you advise on the number.

Congressional Members Directory
Every House CPF and Senate CDS sponsor — searchable by name, chamber, party, and state. Click any member for their complete funding history by fiscal year.
How lobbying and government affairs firms use FFID
Four research workflows that replace manual PDF assembly.
Pull a member's complete funding brief in seconds
Search the member directory, click any sponsor, and see their full CPF and CDS history across fiscal years — total dollars, project types, recipient names, enacted vs. requested status.
Benchmark a client request against comparable recipients
Filter funded projects by state, agency, and project category to see what peer organizations received. Arrive at strategy meetings with data — not estimates.
Track requested projects before they become enacted wins
FFID separates requested from enacted funding. Monitor whether a member's requested projects make it through appropriations — critical intelligence for timing client asks and managing expectations.
Identify patterns and export research for client deliverables
Use the Trends page to understand which agencies are growing and where congressional appetite is building. Then export filtered project lists — recipients, amounts, member sponsors, enacted status — to CSV for client briefing packages. Up to 5,000 rows, ready to drop into a deck or share directly.
In practice
A lobbying shop pulled a senator's five-year CDS funding history — total dollars, recipient types, agency breakdowns — before a client strategy call. No PDFs, no spreadsheets.
A government affairs team benchmarked a client's $2M CPF request against comparable water infrastructure awards in peer states and found the ask was below the enacted average for similar recipients.
A public affairs firm tracked a requested project through two fiscal years before it was enacted — giving their client early confirmation of the appropriations outcome before the press release.
