None/Homemaker as FEC employer text: $8.5 million

A slash form with a None prefix

LobbyVault ranks grouped employer text. None/Homemaker is the mixed-case slash spelling committees stored when filers (or treasurers) combined None with Homemaker. The $8,469,358 total is those itemized individual gifts. It is not a Census household-employment category, not household income, and not a party committee.

HOMEMAKER, HOME MAKER, HOUSEWIFE, and NOT EMPLOYED are other stored strings. LobbyVault does not recode those variants into None/Homemaker. The FEC field records what was typed, not a standardized Census status. The None/ prefix is form text, not an instruction to drop the row.

1,147 donors and 22,071 lines

1,147 unique donors produced 22,071 None/Homemaker contribution lines totaling $8,469,358. That is on the order of 19 itemized receipts per donor. Unique-donor count is larger than HOME MAKER’s cluster in this ranking’s neighborhood of household labels, still as a separate stored string. The packet does not publish a mean gift as its own FEC field.

Party share is not on the industry headline. Independent expenditures and committee PAC filings are outside the $8,469,358 unless an individual receipt itself carries this employer string. Unitemized gifts never appear. Repeat names among 22,071 lines are expected.

HOMEMAKER and HOUSEWIFE stay on their own pages

HOMEMAKER, HOME MAKER, HOUSEWIFE, and RETIRED are separate keys. Combining them with None/Homemaker would invent a household-status recode. This page stays at $8,469,358 for the slash spelling only.

Occupation pages show titles stored beside None/Homemaker as typed. A donor who listed a spouse’s firm name is not in these 1,147 people unless the receipt grouped to None/Homemaker.

Donor table without household inference

The None/Homemaker donor table lists disclosed names, amounts, and recipient committees. A large gift is a public individual contribution. LobbyVault does not attach household wealth, a spouse’s occupation, or a motive to that line. The FEC field is not a Census household roster.

Follow committees on the table for party and office. This guide does not assign a partisan percentage to the slash form. Coverage is itemized federal individual receipts only.

HOMEMAKER, HOME MAKER, and HOUSEWIFE stay out

None/Homemaker as a slash form is not HOMEMAKER, not HOME MAKER, not HOUSEWIFE, and not NOT EMPLOYED. Those strings sit on other keys. The $8,469,358 total, 22,071 contribution lines, and 1,147 donors describe this mixed-case slash spelling only. RETIRED remains another status key. The None/ prefix is stored form text, not an instruction to drop the row.

Unitemized gifts, state races, party committees, and Census household tables stay outside the $8,469,358. Occupation pages show titles beside None/Homemaker. People who still type the slash form remain in the 1,147. The FEC field is not a Census household roster. Repeat names among 22,071 lines are expected.

Open the None/Homemaker donor table for disclosed names and committees. A large gift is a public individual contribution, not a household-wealth or spouse-occupation inference. Cite $8,469,358, 22,071 contributions, and 1,147 donors from FEC.gov via LobbyVault. Labels are FEC employer/occupation self-reports. Do not add HOMEMAKER without the slash prefix to this key.

Researchers who want a household-status recode must list HOMEMAKER, HOME MAKER, HOUSEWIFE, and NOT EMPLOYED as separate additions. The $8,469,358 figure does not absorb those rows. It stays on None/Homemaker as 1,147 donors and 22,071 lines. The None/ prefix is stored form text, not a drop instruction. Follow recipient committees on the None/Homemaker donor table. Party share is not computed on the industry headline. Source: FEC.gov via LobbyVault, self-reported employer text, not a Census household table.
