TO PROTECT OUR HERITAGE PAC$5,000

5 of 11 FEC receipt pages imported. These totals are partial and must not be compared with the complete candidate summary as if they covered every receipt.

This replaces the older recipient-side PAC estimate. Every row comes from the candidate campaign’s Schedule A filings and is identified by FEC committee ID. Parent organizations appear only after review; names never create the link.

Structured organization taxonomy

Tracked PAC Money by Sector

This gross-contribution distribution excludes refunds and offsets and is not total industry support. Categories use reviewed organization profiles first, then transparent parent-organization and committee-name rules. Political and ideological committees are kept separate from commercial industries.
