DEFEND AMERICAN JOBS — 2026 cycle receipts

Reading Defend American Jobs receipts inside 2026

DEFEND AMERICAN JOBS reported $17,219,837.14 in 2026 receipts on FEC.gov. That sentence is the join. The committee type is O (independent expenditure-only committee (FEC type O)). isSuperPac = 1. Disbursements: $10,178,382.85. Source note: committee receipts by election cycle. Committee pages, not donor pages.

2026 is an open presidential-year FEC window still tagged 2026. Odd-year activity inside a two-year FEC cycle is not split out. This file does not publish monthly receipts or primary-versus-general splits. Receipts exceed disbursements by $7,041,454.29 in this extract ($17,219,837.14 in, $10,178,382.85 out). That gap is arithmetic on two cycle totals, not FEC cash on hand and not a prediction of leftover funds.

Do not invent donors. Do not claim $17,219,837.14 funded federal awards. FEC individual and committee receipts are a different dataset from USAspending.gov obligations even when calendar years overlap.

The Defend American Jobs hub is not this 2026 cell

Defend American Jobs as stored here is DEFEND AMERICAN JOBS. Do not substitute a caucus, a leadership office, or a candidate’s personal Form 3 unless that is the stored name. Those are other filers when the ID differs. $17,219,837.14 follows C00836221 only. Committee designation U is stored as unauthorized. Cash on hand in the extract is $8,343,782.90. That is a stored cash-on-hand field, not receipts minus disbursements. Individual contributions are $350,000. That individual column is not the same number as cycle receipts $17,219,837.14; other receipt types can fill the gap without this page naming them.

Amended reports can rename a committee or restate receipts. This prose copies the packet name DEFEND AMERICAN JOBS and the packet dollars $17,219,837.14 / $10,178,382.85. FEC.gov remains the original system of record.

Cycle 2026 without other committees

The cycle overlay lives at the 2026 election-cycle link. That page is every committee in the window. This page is one committee. Mixing the two totals would double-count DEFEND AMERICAN JOBS if someone then compared the mix to the hub.

Gaps, zeros, and matching totals

Receipts $17,219,837.14 can include contributions, transfers in, and other receipts the FEC rolls into the cycle total. The packet does not itemize those sources beyond any individual-contribution field it already stores. Do not invent a small-dollar share or a PAC-transfer share.

Disbursements $10,178,382.85 can include operating costs, transfers out, and independent expenditures depending on the filer. The packet does not itemize those uses.

Limits of the packet facts

Do not merge DEFEND AMERICAN JOBS with a similarly named Super PAC, Carey PAC, or party account that has a different ID. C00836221 is the key.
