Spending above the receipt line

AMERICA PAC's disbursement total of $51,759,284.54 is $1,896,631.30 above the $49,862,653.24 receipt total — about 103.8% of receipts disbursed in these aggregates. Super PACs can report spending more than they raised in a given roll-up because of prior-period cash, loans, credits, or timing. This packet does not include those offsetting lines.

The useful reading is not "the committee is broke" or "the committee overspent." The useful reading is that outflows in the LobbyVault Form 3X aggregate sit above inflows. Confirm debts, loans, and beginning cash on the original FEC reports for C00879510 before drawing a balance-sheet conclusion.

Cite the packet facts in this order: $49,862,653.24 received, $51,759,284.54 disbursed, $49,850,796.07 individual, treasurer Chris Young, Austin, Texas, committee C00879510. Disbursements above receipts is the filing shape. A 99.98% individual share is the category shape. Loans and prior-period cash are not in this packet, so the $1,896,631.30 gap is not a solvency verdict.

AMERICA PAC as a search string collides with other committees. C00879510 does not. Independent-expenditure-only status keeps these totals off of candidate campaign ledgers. Austin as the address of record does not confine the $51,759,284.54 to Texas vendors. Super PAC independent expenditures are federal filings.

Individual contributions of $49.9 million

Individual contributions are $49,850,796.07, about 99.98% of receipts. AMERICA PAC's reported inflows are almost entirely coded as individual. The gap between $49,862,653.24 and $49,850,796.07 is $11,857.17 in other receipt categories.

Near-total individual coding plus disbursements above receipts is the distinctive pair on this packet. It still does not name donors. Super PAC rules allow large individual gifts; 99.98% is a category share, not a small-dollar proof.

Form 3X is the report family behind AMERICA PAC's $49,862,653.24 receipt total and $51,759,284.54 disbursement total. Those two lines produce about 103.8% spend-through on committee C00879510. Individual contributions of $49,850,796.07 are about 100.0% of receipts. Treasurer Chris Young and the Austin, TX, address of record identify the Super PAC on FEC.gov. Independent-expenditure-only status means these figures are not a candidate's Form 3 campaign report. They are not cash on hand. They are not an endorsement. Open the committee overlay for the tables, the Super PAC tracker for other type-O committees, and the PAC directory when the name collides. Stay inside those three links.

Austin, Texas, filing identity

City and state of record are Austin, Texas. Treasurer of record is Chris Young. Committee ID is C00879510. AMERICA PAC is a name that collides in search with other committees; the C-number is the match key in the PAC directory.

Texas as the address of record does not limit independent expenditures to Texas federal races. Super PAC IE filings are federal and can name contests in any state the committee reports.

Super PAC status and what not to mix

Independent-expenditure-only status means these totals are Form 3X committee figures. Do not fold $49,862,653.24 into a candidate's Form 3 receipts. Do not treat $51,759,284.54 as a candidate's operating expenditure line. The Super PAC tracker exists so type-O committees stay in one comparison set.

LobbyVault does not endorse AMERICA PAC or any candidate. Filings describe what C00879510 reported.

Where the tables live

The AMERICA PAC committee page is the overlay target. The Super PAC tracker lists peer independent-expenditure-only committees. The PAC directory is the broader index. Those three links are the packet's internal graph. Start with the $51.8 million disbursement figure if you arrived looking for spending; start with the $49.9 million receipt figure if you arrived looking for fundraising.

When disbursements sit above receipts

AMERICA PAC's $51,759,284.54 disbursed against $49,862,653.24 received is the filing fact that sets C00879510 apart from Super PACs whose receipt line towers over spending. Prior-period cash, loans, and credits can produce that pattern. This packet does not include those offsetting lines. Do not conclude insolvency from two aggregates.

Individual contributions of $49,850,796.07 leave only $11,857.17 in other receipt categories. AMERICA PAC is almost entirely individual-coded and slightly spend-above-receipts in this roll-up. Chris Young as treasurer and Austin, Texas, as the city of record identify the filing. They do not map the $51.8 million to Texas-only vendors.

The name AMERICA PAC collides in search. C00879510 is the match key in the PAC directory. Independent-expenditure-only status means Form 3X, not a candidate campaign account and not a national poll.

Keep these totals off of authorized-committee Form 3 ledgers. Use the AMERICA PAC committee page, the Super PAC tracker, and the PAC directory. Public records describe what C00879510 reported. They do not describe what any voter should do.
