Congressman political contributions from Washington, DC

How Congressman meets Washington, DC on the FEC tape

$39,500 is the overlap of two filer-entered fields: industry/employer grouping CONGRESSMAN and contributor city WASHINGTON with state DC. LobbyVault keeps a Washington, DC city hub and an Congressman industry hub. Neither hub is this join. The city hub is all industries in Washington. The industry hub is that string across cities. This page is only both filters at once.

5 contributions from 3 donors produced $39,500. Repeat gifts add receipts; 3 donors is the headcount in this extract for the join, not a census of everyone in Washington tied to that label. Arithmetic mean per receipt is about $7,900; per donor, about $13,167. Those means are division of packet facts, not typical salaries and not medians.

CONGRESSMAN 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. $39,500 counts only rows that stored this string in Washington, DC. City labels are filer-entered.

The Washington side of the Congressman join

Washington, DC's all-industry itemized book in this extract is $3.7 billion ($3,742,866,190) across 2,458,173 contributions. $39,500 is under 0.1% of that city book. A thin share is expected when the industry key is an exact string: most Washington receipts use other employer labels. Do not treat under 0.1% as the sector's weight in Washington unless the packet listed a sector roll-up. It lists CONGRESSMAN only.

The stored city sits in the District of Columbia, District of Columbia. Arlington and Alexandria are other city strings. District of Columbia campaign-finance pages include other cities. Do not add $39,500 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 $39,500 into spending by Washington candidates.

The Congressman side outside Washington

The Congressman industry hub is the same stored string in every city, not a District of Columbia-only table. $39,500 is the Washington, DC slice of that string. A donor in another city who stored CONGRESSMAN is not in this join. A donor in Washington who stored a different employer string is not in this join either. This packet publishes the industry-side dollars for the grouping as $39,500 with 5 contributions and 3 donors.

This packet does not name committees, parties, or cycles for the Congressman × Washington, DC overlap. Open the live Congressman page and the live Washington, DC page for those breakdowns if the extract publishes them. This prose stays on $39,500, 5 receipts, 3 donors, and the $3.7 billion city book. Quote the join with both nouns in the same sentence so a downstream citation cannot drop a side.

What the Congressman × Washington dollars omit

Unitemized federal gifts sit outside $39,500. District of Columbia 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 WASHINGTON into a Census place or CONGRESSMAN 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 $39,500 as proof that Congressman controls Washington politics. The join is two fields. Correlation is not causation. If the live hubs disagree with $39,500 or 3 donors, the newer FEC extract controls. This snapshot is not a third disclosure system. Do not treat the 3-donor cluster as a company-town finding or as a count of everyone who ever worked under a related name.

Using Washington, DC and Congressman links without mixing statutes

Internal links go to Washington, DC, Congressman, District of Columbia 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 $39,500 to federal spending in District of Columbia. Campaign receipts and federal awards are different statutes even when both mention Washington.

Researchers citing the join should keep both nouns in the sentence: Congressman and Washington, DC. Dropping either noun turns this page into a restatement of a hub it is not. $39,500 across 5 receipts from 3 donors is the only overlap this extract published. Do not add $39,500 to $3,742,866,190; the first number is already inside the second.

How to cite the Washington × Congressman facts

Citation template: employer/industry grouping CONGRESSMAN, contributor city Washington, DC, $39,500 on 5 itemized individual contributions from 3 donors, against a city-wide $3,742,866,190 on 2,458,173 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 Washington, DC hub, the Congressman industry page, District of Columbia 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 Washington, those are city-cycle joins, not this file. If you need Congressman 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 Congressman donors in Washington, DC give?

Itemized FEC individual contributions storing industry CONGRESSMAN and city WASHINGTON total $39,500 across 5 receipts from 3 donors in this extract. That is the join, not Washington, DC's all-industry book of $3.7 billion. Original reports remain on FEC.gov.

Does Congressman in Washington include every related job title?

No. CONGRESSMAN is the exact stored string. Other employer spellings are other keys and are omitted from $39,500. 3 donors and 5 receipts follow that exact-match rule. LobbyVault does not map the field to a standardized occupation list.

What share of Washington, DC itemized money is Congressman?

$39,500 is under 0.1% of the $3.7 billion Washington, DC city book (2,458,173 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 Congressman donations in Washington fund federal spending there?

No. These figures are FEC individual contributions, not USAspending awards. $39,500 does not become a contract because both rows can mention Washington. Different statutes, different forms. This packet has no obligation dollars. Filings remain on FEC.gov.
