Bass Enterprises political contributions from Fort Worth, TX
$11,750 is the Fort Worth, TX join for the exact employer string BASS ENTERPRISES on FEC.gov itemized individual contributions: 4 receipts from 3 donors. Fort Worth’s unfiltered city book is $117,875,456 across 309,445 itemized lines. The Bass Enterprises slice is under 0.1% of that city dollar total. Those two tables meet on filer-entered city and employer fields; the overlap is not a claim that the grouping runs Fort Worth politics.

How Bass Enterprises meets Fort Worth, TX
This page is a join. One dimension is contributor city Fort Worth, TX. The other is the employer/industry grouping Bass Enterprises (stored as BASS ENTERPRISES). $11,750 is the intersection — dollars on receipts that carry both labels. $117,875,456 is the city bucket before the employer filter, built from 309,445 itemized lines. The harvested donor count inside the intersection is 3 donors, not a census of everyone in Fort Worth who ever worked in a related trade.
LobbyVault does not add a third table and does not route these dollars through USAspending. A Form 3 itemization is not a federal award. Open the Fort Worth, TX city hub for the unfiltered city book, the Bass Enterprises industry hub for the grouping outside this city filter, Texas campaign finance for the state roll-up, and All FEC ties for sibling joins. Each of those pages answers a different question. This one answers only the intersection.
BASS ENTERPRISES is a verbatim employer/industry grouping on Schedule A, not a NAICS code and not a Census industry. Parent names, subsidiary spellings, and blank employer rows are other keys. $11,750 counts only rows that stored this string with city Fort Worth.
What the Fort Worth city book holds
Fort Worth indexes $117,875,456 ($118 million rounded) on 309,445 itemized individual contributions. Fort Worth is a filer-entered city string in Texas. A contributor who typed a different city never enters $117,875,456. Texas campaign-finance pages cover the state, a larger geography than Fort Worth. Do not treat the city book as the TX state total. Unitemized federal gifts never carry a published city in this roll-up, so they never enter $117,875,456. State-office campaigns in Texas file under state law and sit outside these FEC individual-contribution aggregates.
Four receipts from three donors is a thin cluster: repeat gifts can raise the line count without adding a fourth person. Arithmetic mean per receipt is about $2,938; per donor, about $3,917. Those means are division of packet facts, not typical salaries and not medians.
The Bass Enterprises slice inside Fort Worth
Inside Fort Worth, receipts tagged BASS ENTERPRISES total $11,750 on 4 lines from 3 donors. That is under 0.1% of $117,875,456. About $2,938 per receipt is $11,750 divided by 4. About $3,917 per harvested donor is $11,750 divided by 3. Those ratios describe shape. They are not medians, not typical household gifts, and not salaries.
Repeat gifts, household pairs, and spelling variants of BASS ENTERPRISES that did not match this key never enter $11,750. Repeat gifts that did match add to 4 without necessarily adding to 3. Keep line count and donor count attached to their nouns when citing Fort Worth.
What this join is not
It is not a ranking of Fort Worth neighborhoods. It is not a safety comparison. It is not proof that Bass Enterprises money funded a federal contract, grant, or loan. Campaign contributions and USAspending awards are different disclosure systems even when they mention the same city. This packet has no award dollars, so this page prints none.
It is not Bass Enterprises nationwide unless the industry hub — a different page — is cited separately, and this packet does not harvest a nationwide integer beyond the join. It is not a PAC independent-expenditure total. Motive is not a field. Party split is not a field in this packet. Missing fields stay missing. Correlation is not causation: two filer-entered fields meeting is not evidence that Bass Enterprises controls Fort Worth politics.

Then send the reader to the live Fort Worth, TX hub, the Bass Enterprises industry page, Texas campaign finance, and All FEC ties. This prose is a packet snapshot. If a later extract disagrees, FEC.gov and the live hubs control. Do not add $11,750 to $117,875,456; the first number is already inside the second.
Using the Fort Worth and Bass Enterprises hubs together
The Fort Worth, TX hub is the unfiltered city index: $117,875,456 on 309,445 lines. The Bass Enterprises hub is the grouping without this city’s filter; this packet does not print a nationwide integer for that hub, so do not guess it from $11,750. Texas campaign finance is the state roll-up, a larger geography than Fort Worth. All FEC ties is the inventory of other two-table pages. Use all four links. None of them turns $11,750 into a federal award.
If you need names, open the live city and industry hubs rather than reverse-engineering 3 donors from this snapshot. If you need cycle cuts of Fort Worth, those are city-cycle joins, not this file. If you need Bass Enterprises in a single even-year window, those are industry-cycle joins. This file stays on one city and one employer string: Fort Worth and Bass Enterprises, $11,750, 4 receipts, 3 donors.
