Insurance Broker as occupation, CIAB PAC as recipient
INSURANCE BROKER is the occupation string. The recipient is C00039578, THE COUNCIL OF INSURANCE AGENTS & BROKERS POLITICAL ACTION COMMITTEE. Matching rows sum to $7,986,813 across 14,245 contributions. The occupation hub is $16,637,368 to every committee in the aggregate. The committee overlay includes every occupation, not only Insurance Broker. This tie page exists because those two dimensions meet; it is not a restatement of either hub.
About 48.0% of the occupation roll on 14,245 lines is a near-half trade-PAC cell, with the other half on other committees. The join key is the occupation string plus committee ID C00039578. It is not a finding that a trade association, employer, or candidate bundled the gifts. Filers listed INSURANCE BROKER; the receipts are attributed to C00039578 in this table. Occupation labels are filer-entered. FEC.gov does not audit job titles against licenses or payroll.
About half of the Insurance Broker grouping
The Insurance Broker occupation grouping shows $16,637,368 in itemized individual money. The CIAB PAC cell is $7,986,813, or 48.0% of that total. The remaining $8,650,555 went to committees other than C00039578. Opening only this tie would hide that remainder.

All occupations and All FEC ties list sibling occupation–committee cells so this join is not mistaken for a company PAC or for independent expenditures.
