    9%of campaign money from small donors

    How the 22% is calculated: the equal-weight average of Israel & Gaza 0% (6 votes), Speech & civil liberties 0% (9 votes), War powers 67% (3 votes). Higher means more often casting the scored vote: against military aid to Israel without new conditions and against ICC sanctions, for blocking arms sales, for requiring Congress to authorize war, and for civil liberties. Each area (Israel & Gaza, war powers, speech & civil liberties) counts equally, so the score is an average of areas, not the share of all listed votes.
