Key figures
- JOHNSON & JOHNSON FEC strings sum to $4,422,871.
- 16,333 contributions came from 549 donors.
- About $271 per gift and $8,056 per donor on a simple mean.
- Janssen and J&J abbreviations may be other keys.
- The label is FEC free text, not NAICS.
549 donors, 16,333 itemized gifts
Five hundred forty-nine unique people produced 16,333 contributions, about 30 itemized gifts per donor. $4,422,871 ÷ 16,333 ≈ $271 per gift. That mid-range frequency and moderate mean sit between high-volume payroll clusters and sparse large-check professional strings. The packet does not split PAC withholdings from candidate gifts.
J&J, Janssen, and Johnson and Johnson without an ampersand can exist as other keys. This page is JOHNSON & JOHNSON only. Top employer matches that ampersand string.
Consumer-health employer text
FEC individual files store employer as typed language. A diversified manufacturer’s legal name, a consumer-brand shorthand, and a subsidiary can all appear as separate industry slugs. $4,422,871 belongs to JOHNSON & JOHNSON. Do not add Janssen or other unit names into this total.
Occupation breakdowns cut by scientist, sales, and related titles. This industry page cuts by employer string. Neither cut is NAICS.
