Arthur Andersen LLP money in federal elections

Mean gift size is about $331; mean per donor is about $8,545. The string is a historical firm name on FEC forms.

A legacy employer string at $4,631,149
Five hundred forty-two donors produced 13,995 contributions, about 26 itemized gifts per person. FEC aggregates that span many cycles retain employer text as originally filed. People who listed ARTHUR ANDERSEN LLP in older cycles remain in this cluster even if they later listed a successor firm. The packet does not split dollars by year, so this guide does not assign $4,631,149 to a single decade.
Top employer matches ARTHUR ANDERSEN LLP. Andersen, Andersen Consulting, and Accenture are different keys if present. They are not added into this total.
Self-report across time
Employer fields are snapshots at filing. A partner who gave in multiple cycles under changing firm names appears in multiple industry slugs. Overlap with later Deloitte or other strings is unknown; the packets do not identify it. Do not add this $4,631,149 to another firm’s page.
Industry labels come from FEC employer/occupation self-reports, not NAICS. The Commission does not retire old employer strings when a firm dissolves.
