CHIROPRACTOR

Contributors who listed CHIROPRACTOR on federal itemized receipts account for $9,588,355, according to FEC.gov aggregates on LobbyVault. The cluster is 41,282 contributions from 1,396 donors. CHIROPRACTOR is a license title placed in the employer box, not a NAICS offices-of-chiropractors total, and not a chiropractic-association PAC. PHYSICIAN, DOCTOR, DENTIST, and MD are sibling clinical-title rows. Packet facts for this page are $9,588,355, 41,282 contributions, and 1,396 donors, with top employer CHIROPRACTOR. Unitemized gifts never appear in that total. LobbyVault indexes FEC.gov individual receipts, not a license roster and not NAICS offices of other health practitioners. This page is not medical advice. PHYSICIAN, DOCTOR, and DENTIST remain separate title-style keys on LobbyVault. MD is another clinical-title key when donors typed those letters.

Key figures

  • CHIROPRACTOR as FEC employer text totals $9,588,355 from 1,396 donors.
  • 41,282 contribution lines sit under that license title.
  • PHYSICIAN, DOCTOR, and DENTIST are separate FEC keys.
  • The label is self-reported form text, not a NAICS health-practitioner sector.

A clinical title in the employer field

LobbyVault ranks grouped employer text. Many self-employed clinicians type CHIROPRACTOR instead of a clinic legal name. The $9,588,355 total is those itemized individual gifts. It is not a NAICS 6213 rollup of offices of other health practitioners, not Medicare billing, and not an association PAC.

People who typed PHYSICIAN, DOCTOR, DENTIST, MD, or a named clinic sit in other rows. LobbyVault does not recode those variants into CHIROPRACTOR. The FEC field records stored text, not a state license roster.

1,396 donors and 41,282 lines

1,396 unique donors produced 41,282 CHIROPRACTOR contribution lines totaling $9,588,355. That is on the order of 30 itemized receipts per donor. Unique-donor count is larger than several firm-name rows in this dollar band, with paperwork volume in the middle of the range. The packet does not publish a mean gift as its own FEC field.

Party share is not on the industry headline. Independent expenditures and association PAC filings are outside the $9,588,355 unless an individual receipt itself carries this employer string. Unitemized gifts never appear. Repeat names among 41,282 lines are expected.
