Spending to oppose them
No committee has filed independent spending in this direction.
How these directions are decided
Independent expenditures reported to the FEC. The supporting or opposing direction is each committee's own declared filing, not an interpretation, and a group spending against a candidate is not necessarily spending for their opponent. Outside money is not the campaign's money and is never added to what they raised.
Record in office
Brattin has not held this office, so there is no federal voting record, no cosponsorships and no committee service to report.
That absence is not a position for or against anything; it is what a first federal campaign looks like in the public record.
