A large occupation, a sparse committee slice
Entrepreneur is a thick occupation key at $39,863,198. Only 10.0% landed on America First Action. $35,861,648 went to other federal committees. A four-million-dollar join can still be a tenth of a title that also feeds candidate and party committees.
46 receipts at mean $86,990 is a sparse, large-check pattern. Forty-six lines can be far fewer people if some names repeat, or close to forty-six people if they do not. The packet publishes neither unique donors nor a median.

A filer can list Entrepreneur and never appear in $4,001,550. A filer can list another occupation on C00637512 and sit outside this join. Both are expected.

Itemized individual contributions only; independent expenditures are outside the source note. Later FEC bulk files override this snapshot. Do not add $4,001,550 to $39,863,198.

C00637512 as America First Action
AMERICA FIRST ACTION, INC. received $4,001,550 from this occupation key. That is not the committee’s total from all occupations. Other titles on C00637512 sit outside the join.
Independent expenditures are excluded by source note. Super PAC spending, if any, is a different FEC schedule. This page is itemized individual contributions grouped by occupation and recipient committee.
Amended Schedule A filings move $4,001,550 and $39,863,198. Rewrite only the sentence whose source moved. This /ties/ page is a join snapshot, not a substitute for the occupation hub or the committee file on FEC.gov. Coverage stops at itemized individual contributions grouped by occupation and recipient committee. Unitemized gifts never enter either integer.
What 10.0 percent does not mean
10.0% is this committee’s share of Entrepreneur itemized dollars, not the share of entrepreneurs who give, and not the occupation’s share of the committee. Inverting the percentage would need the committee’s all-occupation total, which is not in the packet.
Motive, endorsement, and business-interest scoring are not fields. The join is two labels. Correlation is not causation.
