Receipts of $9.43 million on Form 3X

LOUISIANA FREEDOM FUND's receipt aggregate is $9,430,841.51. LobbyVault pulls that number from FEC committee totals for C00906263, not from Louisiana Board of Ethics campaign reports. Form 3X is the report family federal PACs and Super PACs use. A Louisiana name and a New Orleans address of record do not convert these lines into state-only numbers.

Freedom fund is a crowded title pair. Committee ID C00906263 is the match key in the PAC directory. This page does not estimate ad impressions, does not assign a party, and does not map the money to a specific office. The committee page for C00906263 is the overlay target if you need the live table next to this prose.

Disbursements of $7.81 million, about 82.8% of receipts

Total disbursements are $7,809,302.27. That is about 82.8% of the $9,430,841.51 in receipts. LOUISIANA FREEDOM FUND has reported spending a large majority of reported inflows in these aggregates. The packet does not label the remainder as cash on hand. Timing, loans, and refunds can all move those lines.

Disbursements on a Super PAC can include independent expenditures plus operating costs. This summary does not split them. If you need the independent-expenditure schedule, go to the FEC reports for C00906263.

Individual money: $5.37 million

Individual contributions total $5,372,120.01, about 57.0% of receipts. Slightly more than half of reported inflows are tagged as individual under FEC rules. The remaining $4,058,721.50 sits in other receipt categories this packet does not name.

A 57.0% 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.

New Orleans address and treasurer of record

LOUISIANA FREEDOM FUND is registered with a New Orleans, Louisiana, city and state of record. The treasurer is Melissa Hammonds. Louisiana as the address of record is not a statement that the committee's spending is limited to Louisiana races. Super PAC independent expenditures can be reported in any federal contest the committee files on.

Citing Melissa Hammonds identifies the filing, not a biography.

What this Super PAC page is not

This guide is not an endorsement, not a donor ranking, and not a Louisiana election forecast. It restates three FEC aggregates — $9,430,841.51 received, $7,809,302.27 disbursed, $5,372,120.01 in individual contributions — plus the Super PAC flag, city, and treasurer. These totals are not a candidate's Form 3 campaign report.

Reading a mixed-receipt Super PAC with an 83% spend-through

Cite the packet facts in this order: $9,430,841.51 received, $7,809,302.27 disbursed, $5,372,120.01 individual, treasurer Melissa Hammonds, New Orleans, Louisiana, committee C00906263. About 82.8% spend-through and a 57.0% individual share are the two ratios that distinguish this filing.

Do not fold $9,430,841.51 into a candidate's authorized-committee receipts. Independent-expenditure-only status means Super PAC Form 3X. Use the LOUISIANA FREEDOM FUND committee page, the Super PAC tracker, and the PAC directory. LobbyVault does not endorse the committee.

Form 3X is the report family behind LOUISIANA FREEDOM FUND's $9,430,841.51 receipt total and $7,809,302.27 disbursement total. Those two lines produce about 82.8% spend-through on committee C00906263. Individual contributions of $5,372,120.01 are about 57.0% of receipts, leaving $4,058,721.50 in unnamed FEC categories. Treasurer Melissa Hammonds and the New Orleans, Louisiana, 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.

Louisiana and freedom fund are crowded title words. The C-number is the match key. Open the committee overlay for the tables, the Super PAC tracker for other type-O committees with mixed receipt lines, and the PAC directory when Louisiana PAC titles overlap. Stay inside those three links. Do not fold $9,430,841.51 into a state Board of Ethics ledger or a candidate authorized-committee report.

An 82.8% spend-through ratio on $9,430,841.51 is a high-but-not-matched pattern. The packet still does not split ads from overhead inside $7,809,302.27. Citing $5,372,120.01 individual next to the receipt total is the category fact. Itemized schedules, where required, are on FEC.gov. LobbyVault does not endorse the committee.

New Orleans, Louisiana, as the city of record on C00906263 is an organization field. It does not confine the $9,430,841.51 in receipts or the $7,809,302.27 in disbursements to Louisiana races. Melissa Hammonds as treasurer identifies the filing. Form 3X stays on the Super PAC side. The 57.0% individual share and 82.8% spend-through remain the two ratios on this Super PAC.
