LABORERS' DISTRICT COUNCIL OF THE METRO AREA OF PHILADELPHIA AND VICINITY PAC

Tens of thousands of modest itemizations

86,766 receipts at mean $46 is the thickest contribution count in this slice. Repeat payroll-style itemizations can inflate a count without enlarging unique donors. The packet publishes neither unique donors nor a deduction schedule.

34.1% of Laborer itemized dollars landed on this district-council PAC. $7,626,480 (65.9%) went to other federal committees that stored LABORER—candidate committees, other locals, and national funds if they received the string.
