AMERICANS 4 SECURITY PAC — $3.35 million in FEC Super PAC receipts

Plover, Wisconsin, on a $3.35 million Super PAC

City and state of record are Plover, Wisconsin — a smaller mailing city than the Washington, D.C., addresses common on Super PACs in this set. Treasurer of record is Matthew Karas. Committee ID is C00733352. A Wisconsin mailing city does not confine independent expenditures to Wisconsin races. Super PAC Form 3X activity can be reported in any federal contest the committee files.

Americans 4 Security collides with other security-titled PACs in the PAC directory. The numeral 4 in the name is a filing spelling. The C-number is the match key. Independent-expenditure-only status means Super PAC Form 3X, not a candidate's Form 3 campaign report.

Matthew Karas identifies the statement of organization. Citing the treasurer is an identity check, not a biography. Do not merge C00733352 with a similarly named 501.

Disbursements of $2,613,064.64, about 78.0% of receipts

Total disbursements are $2,613,064.64. That is about 78.0% of $3,351,853.13. AMERICANS 4 SECURITY PAC has reported spending most of what it reported raising, with a $738,788.49 gap the packet does not label as cash on hand.

Security in the name does not prove the $2.61 million was independent expenditures about defense or policing. Form 3X disbursement totals mix operating costs and IE activity until schedules are opened on FEC.gov for C00733352. This page does not split ads from overhead.

Individual contributions of $3,341,853.13

Individual contributions of $3,341,853.13 are about 99.7% of receipts. Only $10,000.00 of the receipt total sits outside the individual line. AMERICANS 4 SECURITY PAC is an almost-pure individual Super PAC on these aggregates.

A $3.34 million individual total is a category aggregate, not a donor list. Super PAC rules allow large individual gifts that candidate committees cannot accept. Itemized contributor schedules, where required, live on FEC.gov. This overlay does not name those people.

What AMERICANS 4 SECURITY PAC is not

These totals are not a candidate's authorized-committee receipts. They are not a security-clearance ranking. They are $3,351,853.13 received, $2,613,064.64 disbursed, and $3,341,853.13 individual on a type-O committee. LobbyVault does not endorse the committee or any candidate.

Keep $3,351,853.13 labeled as Super PAC receipts. Public records describe filings. They do not describe what any voter should do.

Plover, Wisconsin, is an organization field, not a spending map

AMERICANS 4 SECURITY PAC lists Plover, Wisconsin, with treasurer Matthew Karas and committee ID C00733352. Plover is a smaller mailing city than the D.C. and Austin addresses common in this batch. A Wisconsin organization field does not confine independent expenditures to Wisconsin races. The numeral 4 in the name is a filing spelling. Security is a name word. It is not a defense-budget line.

The money lines are $3,351,853.13 received, $2,613,064.64 disbursed, and $3,341,853.13 individual. About 99.7% individual leaves only $10,000.00 of receipts outside that category. About 78.0% spend-through leaves a $738,788.49 gap the packet does not label as cash on hand. Independent-expenditure-only status keeps $3,351,853.13 on Form 3X, not on a candidate's Form 3.

Matthew Karas and Plover, Wisconsin, complete the identity block. About 99.7% individual and about 78.0% spend-through is a near-clone inflow, high-outflow pairing. The numeral 4 is a filing spelling. Security stays a name word, not a defense budget. Independent-expenditure-only Super PAC is the type. A Plover address is not a Wisconsin-races map. FEC.gov holds the schedules this overlay does not reprint.
