Receipts of $5.02 million, mostly not coded individual

The receipt aggregate for committee C00544387 is $5,023,996.54. Individual contributions of $859,034.54 are about 17.1% of that total. The remaining $4,164,962.00 sits in other FEC receipt categories this packet does not name — transfers, other committees, offsets, or other Form 3X lines. That mix is the filing fact that separates AMERICAN PRINCIPLES PROJECT PAC from Super PACs funded almost entirely on the individual line.

Seventeen percent individual is still a Super PAC category mix, not a donor roster. Super PAC rules allow large individual gifts and other lawful receipt types. Itemized schedules, where required, are on FEC.gov for C00544387. LobbyVault does not invent the missing categories.

Disbursements of $4.57 million, about 91.0% of receipts

Total disbursements are $4,572,709.73. That is about 91.0% of $5,023,996.54 in receipts. AMERICAN PRINCIPLES PROJECT PAC has reported spending most of what it reported raising in these aggregates. The packet does not label the gap as cash on hand, loans, or refunds.

Principles and project in the committee name do not prove the $4.57 million was independent expenditures. Form 3X disbursement totals mix operating costs and independent-expenditure activity until the schedules are opened. This page does not split ads from overhead.

Arlington, Virginia, identity and the treasurer field

City and state of record are Arlington, Virginia. Treasurer of record is Anthony Labruna. Committee ID is C00544387. American and principles are name words that collide in the PAC directory; the C-number is the match key.

Independent-expenditure-only status is the Super PAC flag. This page does not merge C00544387 with any similarly named nonprofit or 501 organization. Only the Form 3X committee totals are in this packet. Virginia as the address of record does not confine independent expenditures to Virginia races.

What these Form 3X lines are not

These totals are not a candidate's Form 3 campaign report. They are not a score of any policy principle. They are $5,023,996.54 received, $4,572,709.73 disbursed, and $859,034.54 individual on a type-O committee. LobbyVault does not endorse the committee or any candidate.

Keep $5,023,996.54 labeled as committee receipts. Do not fold them into an authorized campaign's ledger. Super PAC independent-expenditure-only status is the filing type, not a motive.

How to read the overlay and tracker

Open the AMERICAN PRINCIPLES PROJECT PAC committee page for the live tables. Use the Super PAC tracker to compare type-O committees with a low individual share rather than a 99% individual clone. Use the PAC directory when the name collides with other American or principles titles. Stay inside those three links.

Form 3X is the report family behind the $5,023,996.54 receipt total. Anthony Labruna and the Arlington, Virginia, address of record identify the Super PAC on FEC.gov. Public records describe filings. They do not describe what any voter should do.

Form 3X method for a low-individual Super PAC

LobbyVault indexes FEC Form 3X committee aggregates. For AMERICAN PRINCIPLES PROJECT PAC those aggregates are $5,023,996.54 received, $4,572,709.73 disbursed, and $859,034.54 individual. Researchers who want donor names, independent-expenditure payees, or cash on hand must open the schedules on FEC.gov for C00544387. This overlay restates the three packet totals plus treasurer Anthony Labruna and Arlington, Virginia. It does not scrape Schedule E and does not invent a cash figure.

A 17.1% individual share on $5,023,996.54 is the number that should change how a reader files this Super PAC. Many type-O committees in the tracker show individual contributions near the receipt total. C00544387 does not. The $4,164,962.00 remainder is still lawful Super PAC money; it is simply not coded individual in this packet. Treat that as a category fact. Do not treat it as a hidden-donor accusation.

Ninety-one percent spend-through ($4,572,709.73 of $5,023,996.54) means most reported inflows have a matching outflow on these rolled totals. The $451,286.81 gap is not cash on hand. Timing across cycles, refunds, and how LobbyVault sums Form 3X lines can move that gap. Independent-expenditure-only status still keeps the whole pair off of candidate Form 3 ledgers. Use the committee overlay for tables, the Super PAC tracker for other low-individual type-O filings, and the PAC directory when American Principles collides.

If you cite AMERICAN PRINCIPLES PROJECT PAC in a note, keep the three packet dollars together with the C-number: $5,023,996.54 received, $4,572,709.73 disbursed, $859,034.54 individual, committee C00544387. Anthony Labruna and Arlington, Virginia, complete the identity block. Form 3X is the report family. Independent-expenditure-only is the type. That block is the whole overlay. It is not a donor ranking, not a principle score, and not voting advice. FEC.gov holds the schedules this packet does not reprint.
