VERIZON COMMUNICATIONS, INC. POLITICAL ACTION COMMITTEE (VERIZON PAC)

Verizon meeting Verizon PAC

Verizon is the grouped employer or occupation key. VERIZON COMMUNICATIONS, INC. POLITICAL ACTION COMMITTEE (VERIZON PAC) is committee C00186288. This page is the overlap: itemized individual gifts whose field grouped to VERIZON and whose recipient is that committee. The $352,867 figure is the intersection.

3,524 contributions averaging about $100 ($352,867 ÷ 3,524) describe this cell. The packet does not name the 3,524 filers or say whether they are one household repeating. A line count is a filing pattern, not a unique-donor census. Verizon × Verizon PAC is an industry-to-committee join, not a donor roster.

The join exists so the industry hub ($4,014,059) and the committee hub are not treated as the same list. C00186288 is the FEC committee ID on this URL. Independent expenditures stay outside $352,867. VERIZON is telecom employer text, not Verizon Communications as a treasury filer.

VERIZON as stored FEC employer text

VERIZON is filer-entered text. Telecom employer text, not verizon communications as a treasury filer. Neighboring spellings can sit on other keys. This page does not recode a corporate family or a NAICS sector into $4,014,059.

Occupation strings without this employer key sit on occupation hubs. This URL is Verizon × Verizon PAC, an industry-to-committee join, not an industry-to-cycle cell. Open the Verizon industry hub for the $4,014,059 employer total and other committees. The 8.8% ratio is $352,867 divided by $4,014,059. Other committee joins for VERIZON are not listed in this packet; they collectively hold $3,661,192. Citing Verizon PAC as if it were the Verizon lifetime total would overstate this cell by $3,661,192.
