Political ProfileWhere WEC sits in Washington
[object Object]
STRUCTURAL: High government dependence (85) and regulatory density (90) scores due to the utility sector's model, but no lobbying spend (`get_political_influence.lobbying.total_income`: $0) or donation patterns. EVIDENTIARY: A single executive branch holding by Donald J. Trump (`get_executive_branch_exposure.by_ticker[0].holdings[0].value_bucket`: $1,001-$15,000) is offset by five congressional sales from three members across both parties in the last 12 months. No corporate insider buys in 180 days (`get_corporate_insider_signal.total_buys`: 0). Net: Contradictory signals with no clear directional weight.
