STATE OF MICHIGAN

Filers who listed STATE OF MICHIGAN as employer or occupation on federal itemized receipts account for $3.9M ($3,910,959) on FEC.gov. The cluster holds 12,220 contributions and 446 donors. The string is a state-government employer label as typed, not a NAICS state-administration code, not Michigan’s state PAC, and not a federal agency account.

Key figures

  • STATE OF MICHIGAN as FEC employer text totals $3.9M ($3,910,959) from 446 donors.
  • 12,220 contribution lines sit under that state-employer string.
  • FEDERAL GOVERNMENT and department-name keys are separate FEC fields.
  • The label is self-reported form text, not a NAICS industry or state PAC total.

State employer text on federal receipts

Four hundred forty-six unique donors produced 12,220 contributions totaling $3,910,959. About 27 itemized gifts per person and a mean gift near $320 describe the arithmetic. Official State of Michigan funds are not the payor in this federal rollup. FEC individual itemizations record what the contributor listed as employer. These rows are the self-reported STATE OF MICHIGAN string plus itemized federal amounts.

Top employer matches STATE OF MICHIGAN. MICHIGAN, STATE OF MI, and named departments can exist as other keys. They are not inside $3,910,959 unless they matched this exact label. LobbyVault does not recode department names into this state phrase.

Who can appear among 446 donors

State employees, contractors who wrote the state phrase, retirees who still use it, and spouses using the same shorthand can all land in the cluster. The FEC does not certify current state payroll. Unique-donor count is matching text, not a Michigan civil-service headcount. Mean per donor is about $8,773.

Occupation fields such as teacher, analyst, or attorney are a separate cut. Use occupation breakdowns for titles. This page stays on the STATE OF MICHIGAN industry key.

Questions

How much have STATE OF MICHIGAN-listed donors given federally?
LobbyVault attributes $3,910,959 to the STATE OF MICHIGAN employer string, from 12,220 contributions and 446 donors. These are itemized federal individual receipts on FEC.gov, not official state funds and not a NAICS state-administration total. Unitemized gifts are omitted. Figures are limited to that FEC employer string as indexed on LobbyVault.
Is this Michigan’s state campaign account?
No. The $3.9M total is contributor disclosures that listed STATE OF MICHIGAN as employer or occupation on federal filings. Official state accounts are not the payor. The FEC field records what filers typed, not a state budget line. Unitemized gifts and non-federal filings are omitted.
Does this include FEDERAL GOVERNMENT filers?
No. FEDERAL GOVERNMENT is a separate grouped string. A receipt counted here carries the grouped text STATE OF MICHIGAN. Staff who typed a department name sit in that department row if it exists as another key. Figures are limited to that FEC employer string as indexed on LobbyVault.
How many unique donors listed STATE OF MICHIGAN?
The rollup counts 446 donors and 12,220 contribution lines. Repeat gifts raise the receipt count. This is not a Michigan civil-service headcount. Figures are limited to the FEC string as indexed on LobbyVault; unitemized gifts and non-federal filings are omitted.

Industry labels come from FEC employer/occupation self-reports, not NAICS. Data from FEC.gov via LobbyVault.
