Politicians' PACsPACs a politician sponsors or runs: a leadership PAC (the FEC’s designation D), a committee the FEC lists as sponsored by a candidate, or a super PAC the politician’s own team runs and press reports tie to them. One that exists only for that politician’s own race is under Groups spending on one race.Parties & politicians

“Fair Shot PAC is committed to defending Democrats in the House of Representatives and flipping seats across the country to take back the Democratic Majority. Securing a Democratic Majority is critical to expanding economic opportunity for working families, defending women’s rights and access to abortion, protecting Social Security and Medicare, addressing our climate crisis, and stopping gun violence in our communities. Founded by Democratic Whip Katherine Clark, Fair Shot PAC supports Democrats who are committed to putting people over politics and ensuring every family has a fair shot at success.”

Each part reads different filings, so counts and totals can differ.
Direct PAC contributions and independent expenditures explicitly reported as support, by the party of the candidate they went to.
Contributions are reported money, not endorsements; a PAC giving to both parties is common.
Every contribution on line 23 of the committee’s own Schedule B, which is the filing its summary totals are built from. That line covers federal candidates, party committees and other political committees alike, so a super PAC funding other super PACs appears here rather than under candidate giving. These are its own contributions. It also passed on $575,244 of people’s earmarked gifts, listed by recipient under Spending.

Each committee that gave is followed to where its own money came from, in proportion to what it received: a committee that got half its money from one person is counted as passing half of what it gave on to that person. Each channel shows the committee the money came through and its place in the money tree. It shows who stood behind the money, not what that money was for, and an organization that need not name its donors ends the trail. It stops at a person, an organization, a committee with nothing on file here, or 3committees deep. A person who gave by more than one route appears under each, a name filed two ways may appear twice, and a person's job and city are as they filed them. "Also behind" counts the other groups, among those that moved $100,000 or more into races, in which $100,000 or more traces to the same person, other than those this money came through or went on to.

By the state each contributor wrote on the filing. The FEC aggregates every Schedule A line together, so one committee or organization transfer can account for a whole state. Contributors who have given $200 or less this cycle are not itemized and cannot be placed on a map. The FEC’s grouping also counts joint-fundraising memo lines, so these rows can add up to more than the itemized total.

Gifts of $200 or less ($17,487) are not itemized, so no employer or occupation is filed for them.
