2012 names an FEC even-year cycle, January 1 of the odd year through December 31 of 2012. Inside that window, receipts tagged Coal Operator sum to $240,461 (85 lines, 17 harvested donors). The Coal Operator hub across cycles is $4,838,910. This page exists because those two dimensions meet, not because one hub needed a restatement.

Seventeen donors on eighty-five itemized lines
This page exists because two FEC dimensions meet: employer/industry grouping Coal Operator and even-year election cycle 2012. $240,461 is the intersection. $4,838,910 is the grouping’s harvested all-cycle total before the year filter. 85 is the 2012 line count. The 2012 donor count is 17 (17 harvested donors). LobbyVault does not convert those integers into a motive, a lobbying total, or a USAspending award.
