California
This cycle, California is the 1st-largest out-of-state source of money in Texas politics, 21.2% of all outside-Texas money.
Figures are this cycle's (2025–26 cycle) itemized contributions, by the contributor addresses on public filings. They are not verified residency, and not a claim about who wins an election or about any person's conduct.

The total and these recipients count every itemized contribution reported from a California address this cycle once, on the direct basis. A filer's own profile traces its lifetime money back through the PACs that funded it, so a profile total can exceed what appears here. See the methodology.
