The bill S. 5374, which pertains to land conveyance in Bonners Ferry, Idaho, does not have any direct industry overlaps with the sponsor James Risch's top donor industries, which are primarily health professionals and retirees. The total contributions from health professionals amount to $1,080,000,000, while contributions from retirees total $337,500,000.
