“The events of January 6 had a profound impact on all Americans. The violence at the United States Capitol shook our nation and reminded us that democracy is not a given – it must be protected by smart laws, honorable lawmakers and brave citizens who will stand up for our Constitution. Harry Dunn was there on that fateful day, and he knows exactly what’s at stake in this election.”

No published list of positions
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.

| All recipients | 6 | $11K |

Candidate contribution rows come from candidate committee Schedule A filings, the same rows the party chart above counts.
Money moving between this committee and other committees, matched on FEC committee ID rather than the name each filing was typed under. Both sides exclude memo entries. The figures here count each committee once, from the itemized transfers read for this section, so they will not match the payment counts under Who this PAC gave to.

A donor who gave several times appears once. The 12 largest donors by total given are listed. In all, 14,080 itemized contributions were filed this cycle, totaling $874K. FEC contributor lists are public records and cannot be used for commercial solicitation.
The 5 largest committees by total given are listed. Counted from the givers' own filings and this committee's lines for them, whichever is larger, which can run above the total this committee reports.
Total reported receipts $4,986,501
Every dollar the committee reported receiving this cycle, split by the source the FEC filing attributes it to. FEC filings through Oct 14, 2026.

256 smaller sources, $204.3K in all (4.1%), are not listed.
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.

A further $66,001 came from donors whose answer names no employer (N/A, None, blank), so it is not ranked.

Gifts of $200 or less ($4,018,764) are not itemized, so no employer or occupation is filed for them.

All 231 itemized payments filed this cycle. Spending below the itemization threshold is not filed line by line.
13 payments were reported as a lump sum, such as a card or payroll bill, with the detail filed underneath as memo entries. Those entries, $154,414 in all, are counted under the payee and purpose they name rather than under the processor that was paid. The total is the same either way.
