Political ProfileWhere TER sits in Washington
[object Object]
STRUCTURAL: Moderate federal contract dependency ($173M across 127 contracts from DoD/GSA). EVIDENTIARY: No corporate insider buys in 180 days (`get_corporate_insider_signal.total_buys` = 0). Mixed congressional trading activity with 10 trades by two members (M001136, K000389), all in the $1k-$15k range, showing no clear directional pattern. Net: Contract base provides stability, but lack of aligned political spending or concentrated insider buying limits signal strength.
