Spent more than the $5.57 million receipt line
FORWARD MAJORITY ACTION disbursed $6,279,784.70 against $5,572,682.14 in receipts. That is about 112.7% spend-through. The packet does not explain the overage. Prior-period cash, loans, refunds, and how FEC rolls cycles into an aggregate can all produce a spending line above receipts. This page does not label the overage as debt. It cites the two totals.
Forward, majority, and action are title words. They are not a seat count and not a prediction. Committee ID C00631549 is the match key in the PAC directory when other forward-majority titles appear.
LobbyVault pulls these figures from FEC committee aggregates, not from advertising invoices. Form 3X is the report family federal Super PACs use.
Individual money: $4.00 million, about 71.8%
Individual contributions total $3,998,732.39, about 71.8% of receipts. A majority of reported inflows are tagged as individual under FEC rules. The remaining $1,573,949.75 sits in other receipt categories this packet does not name.
A 71.8% individual share is a mixed line, not a donor roster. Super PAC rules allow large individual contributions that candidate committees cannot accept. Itemized contributor schedules, where required, are on FEC.gov for C00631549.
