Attorney political contributions from Bethesda, MD

Filers who stored industry grouping ATTORNEY and contributor city BETHESDA reported $36,650 in itemized individual contributions, across 53 receipts from 22 donors. That is the city-and-industry join, not Bethesda, MD's all-industry book of $157.7 million across 416,217 city-field lines. Source: FEC.gov Schedule A aggregates. Labels are filer-entered.

Key figures

  • $36,650 from 22 donors and 53 receipts is the Attorney × Bethesda, MD join.
  • $157,728,166 is the all-industry Bethesda, MD book; this string is under 0.1% of that book.
  • ATTORNEY is an exact filer-entered label, not a sector roll-up.
  • Means near $692 per receipt and $1,666 per donor are arithmetic only.
  • If the live hub disagrees, the newer FEC extract controls.

How Attorney meets Bethesda, MD on the FEC tape

$36,650 is the overlap of two filer-entered fields: industry/employer grouping ATTORNEY and contributor city BETHESDA with state MD. LobbyVault keeps a Bethesda, MD city hub and an Attorney industry hub. Neither hub is this join. The city hub is all industries in Bethesda. The industry hub is that string across cities. This page is only both filters at once.

53 contributions from 22 donors produced $36,650. Repeat gifts add receipts; 22 donors is the headcount in this extract for the join, not a census of everyone in Bethesda tied to that label. Arithmetic mean per receipt is about $692; per donor, about $1,666. Those means are division of packet facts, not typical salaries and not medians.

ATTORNEY is an exact employer/industry string on the itemization, not a NAICS sector and not every person who works in a related job. Other spellings, parent-company names, job titles, and blank employer rows are other keys. $36,650 counts only rows that stored this string in Bethesda, MD. City labels are filer-entered.

The Bethesda side of the Attorney join

Bethesda, MD's all-industry itemized book in this extract is $157.7 million ($157,728,166) across 416,217 contributions. $36,650 is under 0.1% of that city book. A thin share is expected when the industry key is an exact string: most Bethesda receipts use other employer labels. Do not treat under 0.1% as the sector's weight in Bethesda unless the packet listed a sector roll-up. It lists ATTORNEY only.

The stored city sits in Montgomery County, Maryland. Chevy Chase and Silver Spring are other city strings. Maryland campaign-finance pages include other cities. Do not add $36,650 to the state hub; the state extract already contains these rows when the same tape is used. All FEC ties lists other city-industry pages. None of them converts $36,650 into spending by Bethesda candidates.

The Attorney side outside Bethesda

The Attorney industry hub is the same stored string in every city, not a Maryland-only table. $36,650 is the Bethesda, MD slice of that string. A donor in another city who stored ATTORNEY is not in this join. A donor in Bethesda who stored a different employer string is not in this join either. This packet publishes the industry-side dollars for the grouping as $36,650 with 53 contributions and 22 donors.

This packet does not name committees, parties, or cycles for the Attorney × Bethesda, MD overlap. Open the live Attorney page and the live Bethesda, MD page for those breakdowns if the extract publishes them. This prose stays on $36,650, 53 receipts, 22 donors, and the $157.7 million city book. Quote the join with both nouns in the same sentence so a downstream citation cannot drop a side.

What the Attorney × Bethesda dollars omit

Unitemized federal gifts sit outside $36,650. Maryland state-office filings sit outside it. Independent expenditures are a different FEC file. City labels and industry labels are both filer-entered; LobbyVault does not recode BETHESDA into a Census place or ATTORNEY into a standardized occupation. PAC or joint-fundraising addresses that stored this pair of strings follow the same rule as household streets.

Do not read $36,650 as proof that Attorney controls Bethesda politics. The join is two fields. Correlation is not causation. If the live hubs disagree with $36,650 or 22 donors, the newer FEC extract controls. This snapshot is not a third disclosure system. Do not treat the 22-donor cluster as a company-town finding or as a count of everyone who ever worked under a related name.

Using Bethesda, MD and Attorney links without mixing statutes

Internal links go to Bethesda, MD, Attorney, Maryland campaign finance, and All FEC ties. Use those four doors. FEC individual contributions are not USAspending awards. This packet has no obligation dollars and no award counts. Do not add $36,650 to federal spending in Maryland. Campaign receipts and federal awards are different statutes even when both mention Bethesda.

Researchers citing the join should keep both nouns in the sentence: Attorney and Bethesda, MD. Dropping either noun turns this page into a restatement of a hub it is not. $36,650 across 53 receipts from 22 donors is the only overlap this extract published. Do not add $36,650 to $157,728,166; the first number is already inside the second.

How to cite the Bethesda × Attorney facts

Citation template: employer/industry grouping ATTORNEY, contributor city Bethesda, MD, $36,650 on 53 itemized individual contributions from 22 donors, against a city-wide $157,728,166 on 416,217 contributions (under 0.1% of city dollars). Source: FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault. City labels are filer-entered.

Then send the reader to the live Bethesda, MD hub, the Attorney industry page, Maryland campaign finance, and All FEC ties. This prose is a packet snapshot. If a later extract disagrees, FEC.gov and the live hubs control. If you need cycle cuts of Bethesda, those are city-cycle joins, not this file. If you need Attorney in a single even-year window, those are industry-cycle joins. This file stays on one city and one employer string.

Questions

How much did Attorney donors in Bethesda, MD give?
Itemized FEC individual contributions storing industry ATTORNEY and city BETHESDA total $36,650 across 53 receipts from 22 donors in this extract. That is the join, not Bethesda, MD's all-industry book of $157.7 million. Original reports remain on FEC.gov.
Does Attorney in Bethesda include every related job title?
No. ATTORNEY is the exact stored string. Other employer spellings are other keys and are omitted from $36,650. 22 donors and 53 receipts follow that exact-match rule. LobbyVault does not map the field to a standardized occupation list.
What share of Bethesda, MD itemized money is Attorney?
$36,650 is under 0.1% of the $157.7 million Bethesda, MD city book (416,217 city-field contributions). A thin share usually means other employer strings dominate the city tape, not that the grouping is absent. Quote both dollars. Do not upgrade under 0.1% into a sector ranking.
Do Attorney donations in Bethesda fund federal spending there?
No. These figures are FEC individual contributions, not USAspending awards. $36,650 does not become a contract because both rows can mention Bethesda. Different statutes, different forms. This packet has no obligation dollars. Filings remain on FEC.gov.
