Under-half spend-through on $1,482,782.52 disbursed
Total disbursements of $1,482,782.52 are about 43.9% of $3,377,345.19 in receipts. TRUTH AND COURAGE PAC has reported spending less than half of reported inflows in these aggregates. The leftover $1,894,562.67 is not labeled cash on hand in this packet.
Courage in the committee name does not prove the $1.48 million was independent expenditures. Form 3X disbursement totals mix operating costs and IE activity until schedules are opened on FEC.gov for C00796045. This page does not split ads from overhead.
A 43.9% spend-through ratio sits well below Super PACs in this set that empty the register. Cite the two lines as they print. Do not invent a cash-on-hand figure the packet does not include.
Individual contributions of $2,734,427.01
Individual contributions of $2,734,427.01 are about 81.0% of $3,377,345.19. The remaining $642,918.18 of inflows sits in other FEC receipt categories this packet does not name. Eighty-one percent individual is a high Super PAC individual share, not a 99% clone.
A $2.73 million individual total is a category aggregate, not a donor list. Super PAC rules allow large individual gifts. Itemized contributor schedules, where required, live on FEC.gov. This overlay does not name those people.
Austin, Texas, treasurer Cabell Hobbs
City and state of record are Austin, Texas. Treasurer of record is Cabell Hobbs. Committee ID is C00796045. Truth and Courage collides with other virtue-titled PACs in the PAC directory; the C-number is the match key.
Texas as the address of record does not confine independent expenditures to Texas races. Super PAC Form 3X activity can be reported in any federal contest the committee files. Cabell Hobbs identifies the statement of organization. The same treasurer name appears on SOLUTIONS FOR WISCONSIN in this Super PAC set; match on C00796045, not on the treasurer string alone.
Independent-expenditure Super PAC, not a candidate committee
These totals are not a candidate's Form 3 campaign report. They are not a truth-ranking. They are $3,377,345.19 received, $1,482,782.52 disbursed, and $2,734,427.01 individual on a type-O committee. LobbyVault does not endorse the committee or any candidate.

Under-half spend-through with an Austin treasurer already in this set
TRUTH AND COURAGE PAC reported $3,377,345.19 received and only $1,482,782.52 disbursed, about 43.9% spend-through. That under-half ratio is the distinctive outflow fact. Individual contributions of $2,734,427.01 are about 81.0% of receipts, so inflows are mostly individual while outflows lag. The leftover $642,918.18 of receipts is unnamed. The $1,894,562.67 gap on the outflow side is not cash on hand.
Cabell Hobbs as treasurer and Austin, Texas, as the city of record also appear on SOLUTIONS FOR WISCONSIN in this batch. Match on C00796045. Truth and courage are name words. They are not a fact-check. Independent-expenditure-only status keeps $3,377,345.19 on Form 3X. Texas as the address of record does not confine independent expenditures to Texas.
