The Personal Gain Index (U.S. Congress) is a two-part measurement that illustrates the extent to which members of the U.S. Congress have prospered during their tenure as public servants.
It consists of two different metrics:
PGI: Change in net worth
Between 2004 and 2012, Bordallo's calculated net worth[11] increased by 178.1 percent. Between 2004 and 2012, the average annual percentage increase for a member of Congress was 15.4 percent.[12]

Madeleine Bordallo Democratic National Convention, 2016 Status: Superdelegate State: Guam Supporting: Hillary Clinton Delegates to the DNC 2016 Calendar and delegate rules overview • Types of delegates • State election law and delegates • Superdelegates by state Bordallo was a superdelegate to the 2016 Democratic National Convention from Guam.[15] Bordallo was one of five superdelegates from Guam. Superdelegates to the 2016 Democratic National Convention were not bound by the results of their territory’s primary or caucus results to support a specific presidential candidate. Bordallo supported Hillary Clinton for the Democratic nomination.[16] Clinton formally won the Democratic nomination for president on July 26, 2016.[17]
What is a superdelegate?
Superdelegates in 2016 were automatic delegates to the Democratic National Convention, meaning that, unlike regular delegates, they were not elected to this position. Also unlike regular delegates, they were not required to pledge their support to any presidential candidate, and they were not bound by the results of their state's presidential primary election or caucus. In 2016, superdelegates included members of the Democratic National Committee, Democratic members of Congress, Democratic governors, and distinguished party leaders, including former presidents and vice presidents. All superdelegates were free to support any presidential candidate of their choosing at the 2016 Democratic National Convention.[18]
