Muted rows are campaigns not on the November ballot; their money is still their own filed record. Showing 7 of the 11 campaigns that hold the seat, are on the ballot, or have $25,000 raised or outside spending, not counting campaigns that ended before any ballot; every filing is on the race page.
Record in office
Koppie does not hold a seat in Congress now, so there is no current voting record, cosponsorships or committee service to show here.
That absence is not a position for or against anything.
