A round $3,500,000 individual Super PAC
Receipts of $3,500,000.00 even and individual contributions of $3,500,000.00 even mean 100% of inflows are coded individual on these Form 3X aggregates. There is no leftover receipt category in this packet. YOU CAN PUSH BACK is a pure individual Super PAC on the numbers LobbyVault indexed.
A round three-and-a-half-million-dollar 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, are on FEC.gov for C00946830. This overlay does not name those people.
You Can Push Back collides with slogan-style PAC titles in the PAC directory. The C-number is the match key. Independent-expenditure-only status means Super PAC Form 3X, not a candidate's Form 3 campaign report. Do not merge C00946830 with a similarly named 501.
Disbursements of $2,063,530 — about 59% spend-through

Push back in the name does not prove the $2.06 million was independent expenditures. Form 3X disbursement totals mix operating costs and IE activity until schedules are opened. This page does not split ads from overhead.
San Francisco address of record
City and state of record are San Francisco, California. Treasurer of record is James Sutton. Committee ID is C00946830. California as the address of record does not confine independent expenditures to California races. Super PAC Form 3X activity can be reported in any federal contest the committee files.
James Sutton identifies the statement of organization. Citing the treasurer is an identity check, not a biography. A Bay Area mailing city is an organization field, not a spending map.
What YOU CAN PUSH BACK is not
These totals are not a candidate's authorized-committee receipts. They are not a turnout instruction. They are $3,500,000.00 received, $2,063,530.00 disbursed, and $3,500,000.00 individual on a type-O committee. LobbyVault does not endorse the committee or any candidate.
Keep $3,500,000.00 labeled as Super PAC receipts. Public records describe filings. They do not describe what any voter should do.
How to read the overlay
Open the YOU CAN PUSH BACK committee page for the tables. Use the Super PAC tracker to compare type-O committees whose individual line equals receipts and whose spend-through sits near 60%. Use the PAC directory when Push Back in the title collides.
Cite FEC.gov Form 3X aggregates as the source. Stay inside the three packet links.
San Francisco address on a $3.5 million individual Super PAC
YOU CAN PUSH BACK lists San Francisco, California, with treasurer James Sutton and committee ID C00946830. A Bay Area mailing city is an organization field. It does not confine independent expenditures to California. The money lines are $3,500,000.00 received, $2,063,530.00 disbursed, and $3,500,000.00 individual. One hundred percent individual inflows plus about 59.0% spend-through is a pure-individual, mid spend-through pairing.
The $1,436,470.00 gap between receipts and disbursements is not cash on hand in this packet. Round $3.5 million totals usually mean large individual gifts. This page still does not name them. Push Back is a slogan-style title. It collides in the PAC directory. Match on C00946830. Independent-expenditure-only status keeps $3,500,000.00 on Form 3X, not on a candidate's Form 3.
Open FEC.gov if you need Schedule A or Schedule E. Use the YOU CAN PUSH BACK committee page, the Super PAC tracker for other 100% individual type-O committees with spend-through near 60%, and the PAC directory. Cite FEC.gov. Public records describe filings. They do not describe what any voter should do.
If you cite YOU CAN PUSH BACK, keep the even $3,500,000.00 receipt and individual pair with $2,063,530.00 disbursed and committee C00946830. James Sutton and San Francisco, California, complete the identity block. One hundred percent individual and about 59.0% spend-through is a pure-individual mid-outflow pairing. Push Back stays a slogan-style filing title. Independent-expenditure-only Super PAC is the type. A San Francisco address is not a California-races map. FEC.gov holds itemized schedules this overlay does not reprint. LobbyVault does not tell anyone to push back.
