Business Development contributions received by ACTBLUE

Business Development meeting ActBlue as a conduit

BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT is the grouped occupation string. ACTBLUE is committee C00401224. SALES, BUSINESS DEV, and BD are other keys if stored separately. Matching rows sum to $1,051,879 across 16,202 contributions. The occupation hub is $6,454,275 to every committee in the aggregate. The committee overlay includes every occupation, not only Business Development. This tie page exists because those two dimensions meet; it is not a restatement of either hub.

Sixteen thousand two hundred two itemized lines at a mid two-digit mean sit between a thin megadonor cell and a counselor-scale conduit flood. The join key is the occupation string plus committee ID C00401224. It is not a finding that a trade association, employer, or candidate bundled the gifts. Filers listed BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT; the receipts are attributed to C00401224 in this table. Occupation labels are filer-entered. FEC.gov does not audit job titles against licenses or payroll. Employer names on the same receipts are a different cut and are not published in this packet.

About one-sixth of the Business Development grouping

The Business Development occupation grouping shows $6,454,275 in itemized individual money. The ACTBLUE cell is $1,051,879, or 16.3% of that total. The remaining $5,402,396 went to committees other than C00401224. Opening only this tie would hide that remainder. Most Business Development-coded dollars still sit at candidate committees and other PACs.

Business Development keeps the $6,454,275 grouping and its other recipients. ACTBLUE keeps C00401224 volume from every occupation. All occupations and All FEC ties list sibling occupation–committee cells so this join is not mistaken for a company PAC or for independent expenditures.

16,202 contributions on C00401224

ACTBLUE received $1,051,879 from Business Development-coded receipts across 16,202 contributions. Dividing dollars by gifts gives about $65 per contribution. 16,202 lines are not 16,202 unique people. Repeat givers, multiple earmarks, and cycle stacking raise the contribution count. The packet does not publish a unique-donor figure for this cell. Sixteen thousand lines are not a unique-person census of BD staff. Repeat earmarks raise the count.

The source note is explicit: these figures are FEC.gov aggregates of itemized individual contributions grouped by occupation and recipient committee, not independent expenditures. Committee-to-committee transfers and unitemized gifts are outside the $1,051,879 total. C00401224 can function as a conduit; this join still stores the committee as the recipient on the itemized line.

SALES as a sibling, employer brands, and awards

A 16.3% share of Business Development-coded dollars into C00401224 does not mean the occupation caused an election outcome, and it does not mean ACTBLUE is the occupation’s only political destination. Occupation and committee are reported together. The overlap is descriptive. Federal awards on USAspending.gov are a different ledger; this page does not claim donations funded awards. Do not read the overlap as a finding that business-development staff as a trade directed a party.

Quote $1,051,879 as 16.3% of $6,454,275 into C00401224, with 16,202 itemized lines, source FEC.gov, and stop there. Do not add sibling occupation keys. Do not fold independent expenditures into the cell. Do not treat 16,202 contributions as a headcount of people currently holding the job. This page is not a sales-quota ranking, a CRM headcount, or the one-word SALES key.

How to cite Business Development × C00401224

A complete claim names Business Development and ACTBLUE (C00401224), then $1,051,879, 16,202 contributions, and 16.3% of $6,454,275, source FEC.gov. Keep both sides of the name whenever the dollars are quoted. The occupation hub still holds $5,402,396 outside this committee. This page isolates the overlap for readers who need both the title and the committee, not either hub restated.

A CRM headcount would be a different object. SALES remains a sibling occupation hub, not this total. All occupations ranks sibling titles. All FEC ties lists other occupation–committee pages. Original filings remain at FEC.gov. Mean gift $65 is $1,051,879 divided by 16,202 lines, and the occupation remainder outside C00401224 is $5,402,396. Repeat the four numbers together: $1,051,879 into C00401224, 16,202 contributions, 16.3% of $6,454,275, committee ACTBLUE.
