Csx Corp

Its government footprint in one place: federal money, influence and market activity, each row linked to its source. Federal figures gathered Oct 26, 2026.

In plain words

It appears on 76 Senate lobbying filings from 2015 to 2026; 5 of the lobbyists on them once held government posts. In the last 12 months insiders sold 4 times ($12.7M) and bought 1 time ($1.0M); 0 of the 2 sales whose filing shows the plan box were planned in advance.

Written by fixed rules from the figures on this page. No opinion, no prediction.

Government money

What these numbers are

Obligated means an agency committed the money to this company in that period (a signed contract action), as reported to USAspending. It is not a payment and not revenue: a contract can be funded for several years at once, and revenue is booked as the work is done. Some years can exceed revenue for that reason.

Prime contracts only, and only what is published. Work the company does as a subcontractor is not in these figures, and classified contracts are not published on USAspending at all. A low share can mean either. Contract values, ceilings and options are never added in.

Which units count: the USAspending recipient that is the company's SEC registrant; units of the company that USAspending's own records place under it (as parent, or in its family tree); and subsidiaries from the company's SEC Exhibit 21 that carry its name. Joint ventures, units now owned by someone else, and records that only share a name are held back. Both lists are below.

Earlier years count the units the company owns today. A unit we checked by hand (its USAspending parent is out of date) counts from the date the company bought it, or, where no filing gives that date, from the first date a filing shows the company owning it. Other units count for every year shown until their purchase dates are loaded.

Revenue bars are the company's own fiscal year from its 10-K, placed in the federal year it ends in; its fiscal year can end in a different month than the government's.

Fiscal year 2022 onward. Federal fiscal years run October to September; the company's own fiscal year may differ.

Foreign agents (FARA)
ⓘFARA (Foreign Agents Registration Act): people who work in the US for a foreign government, party or company must register and report what they do and what they are paid.

Lobbying firms working for this company also represent these foreign principals. These are separate engagements: the firm's foreign work is not done for this company.

  • Continental Strategy LLC · latest FARA filing, Sep 30, 2026lobbied for this company to 2026

    Continental Strategy LLC lobbies the federal government for Csx Corp: 3 filings, 2026, on railroads and transportation (for example, “Assisted with comments on the Union Pacific (UP) and Norfolk Southern (NS) merger”). Separately, it is registered as an agent of 12 foreign principals. No amount is stated in its latest six-month FARA report (to Feb 28, 2026).

    Agents registered at this firm, not necessarily assigned to this specific client: John Barsa, Wesam Hassanein, Carlos Trujillo, Doug MacGillivray, Alberto Martinez, Alejandro Garcia

Market
ⓘA 10b5-1 plan is a trading schedule an insider sets up in advance, so sales under it say less about the insider’s view.

Open-market buys and sells from SEC Form 4 filings; grants and option exercises left out, and trades whose filed price failed our market check. A 10b5-1 plan is a trading schedule set in advance, so those sells say little about the insider's view. The plan box is on filings from April 2023 on.

Sources and limits

USAspending (prime contracts only; no subcontracts or classified work; defense contracts can arrive up to 90 days after signing), SEC EDGAR, Senate LDA, FEC, House and Senate disclosures, the Federal Register and the White House. Companies are tied to records by exact name, a verified alias or a subsidiary in the company's own Exhibit 21; a miss is better than a wrong link. A shared date is not proof of cause, and nothing here is investment advice.
