Two keys: Priorities USA Action and 2020

LobbyVault stores committees separately from election cycles. Crossing PRIORITIES USA ACTION with 2020 yields $139,463,406.37 in receipts. Disbursements on the same pair are $138,344,933.90. PRIORITIES USA ACTION is a hybrid PAC (FEC type V). The packet Super PAC flag is 0. Do not relabel this cell as a Super PAC page.

The committee hub at /committees/C00495861/ mixes every cycle this committee appears in; this tie isolates 2020 only. Adding other-cycle receipts from that hub into $139,463,406.37 would break the join. 2020 is a presidential-year FEC two-year window.

Receipts of $139,463,406.37 and disbursements of $138,344,933.90 sit close together for Priorities USA Action in this cycle cell. The arithmetic gap is $1,118,472.47. Closeness is not proof the books are closed, and it is not a cash-on-hand figure. This packet does not publish cash on hand or an individual-contributions column for Priorities USA Action in 2020. Do not read $139,463,406.37 or $138,344,933.90 as federal contract or grant funding. FEC receipts and USAspending obligations are different datasets and different statutes.

This slug ends in -2. The disambiguator on this page is FEC committee ID C00495861 together with receipts $139,463,406.37 for 2020. Cite C00495861 in any comparison against a similarly named file so the row cannot collapse into another committee or another harvest of the same pair.
