Gulford Transportation contributions received by CLF

Industry GULFORD TRANSPORTATION and committee C00504530 together

$30,000,000 requires both keys at once: employer/occupation grouping GULFORD TRANSPORTATION, and recipient committee C00504530 disclosed as CLF. LobbyVault keeps a Gulford Transportation industry hub and a CLF committee hub. Neither hub is this page. The industry hub lists every committee that received itemized gifts storing this grouping. The committee hub lists every industry string that gave to C00504530. This URL is only the intersection.

This page is a JOIN. One side is the filer-entered grouping Gulford Transportation. The other side is CLF on C00504530. $30,000,000 is what remains after both filters, across 224 itemized contributions. Opening only the Gulford Transportation hub restates $100,813,470. Opening only the committee hub restates every grouping that gave to C00504530. Adding those hubs together double-counts. GULFORD TRANSPORTATION is the exact stored spelling, including GULFORD rather than Guilford. Correcting the spelling would point at a different key. CLF on C00504530 is the labeled recipient. A Hampton Event page also joins CLF; do not add those cells. 224 contributions produced this Gulford Transportation cell. The packet does not expand CLF.

Gulford Transportation dollars that stored other committees

Gulford Transportation’s all-committee itemized book in this extract is $100,813,470 ($100.8 million). $30,000,000 is 29.8% of that book. The leftover $70,813,470 (70.2%) went to other committees under GULFORD TRANSPORTATION, or sits outside this recipient filter. A large or small share still describes overlap of two FEC groupings, not a finding that people in this grouping preferred this committee as a bloc.

Take the committee filter off and GULFORD TRANSPORTATION still shows $100,813,470 itemized. $30,000,000 is the slice tagged to C00504530. Open the Gulford Transportation hub for the remainder $70,813,470. Do not subtract by hand from a different extract dated on another night. The industry book is not a company budget and not a NAICS sector total.

Recipient CLF is not a donor roster

C00504530 is disclosed as CLF. This page does not list independent expenditures the committee made, operating expenditures it paid, or earmark destinations beyond the labeled recipient. $30,000,000 is itemized individual receipts storing grouping GULFORD TRANSPORTATION and committee C00504530. Other industry strings giving to CLF appear on the committee hub. Adding them here would break the industry filter.

Quote the committee with its FEC ID so a similarly named filing is not swapped in. CLF on another ID is a different page. This URL is Gulford Transportation × C00504530, not every spelling of GULFORD TRANSPORTATION. Dividing $30,000,000 by 224 contributions yields about $133,929 per itemized gift. That mean is arithmetic, not a typical gift and not a median. The packet does not name unique donors. Inventing names from the grouping label would break the contract.

Leftover $70,813,470 under GULFORD TRANSPORTATION

29.8% of $100,813,470 is $30,000,000 to CLF (C00504530). That percentage describes overlap of two FEC groupings. Most of the $100,813,470 industry book went to other committees when 70.2% remains. Even when 29.8% is a visible slice, the slice is still only the C00504530 filter. Ranking this grouping against other employer strings is outside the packet.

The leftover $70,813,470 under the GULFORD TRANSPORTATION string went to other committees. The Gulford Transportation hub holds that remainder. The CLF page holds receipts whose employer field did not store GULFORD TRANSPORTATION. Do not stack this cell with another industry’s gifts to C00504530; each join is its own filter.

Limits of the Schedule A industry×committee extract

Unitemized federal gifts sit outside $30,000,000. Independent expenditures are a different FEC file; the source note on this packet says these aggregates are not independent expenditures. Employer and occupation labels are filer-entered. Neighboring spellings, punctuation variants, and successor company names are other keys. PAC disbursements from Gulford Transportation as an organization are not this cell.

Do not read $30,000,000 as proof that Gulford Transportation “funded” CLF as a corporate act, or that the committee spent the money on a particular race. The join is two fields. Correlation is not causation. FEC individual contributions are not USAspending awards. This packet has no obligation dollars and no award counts. Do not add $30,000,000 to federal spending.

Citation order for Gulford Transportation and CLF

Internal links go to Gulford Transportation, CLF, All industries, and All FEC ties. Use those four doors. The industry page holds the $100,813,470 book and the committees that received the leftover $70,813,470. The committee page holds C00504530 receipts from every grouping. All FEC ties collects neighboring pairs without mixing independent expenditures into this cell.

A later amendment wave can move a dollar without this file rewriting itself. Treat the live LobbyVault overlay as newer than this packet snapshot. If the overlay disagrees, the overlay and FEC.gov control.

Keep both sides named: Gulford Transportation (GULFORD TRANSPORTATION) as the industry/occupation grouping, CLF (C00504530) as the recipient. $30,000,000 from 224 itemized contributions is the published overlap. Unitemized gifts never appear. If a later FEC extract disagrees with this snapshot, FEC.gov controls.

Questions

How much itemized money from GULFORD TRANSPORTATION went to C00504530?

Itemized FEC individual contributions storing grouping GULFORD TRANSPORTATION and recipient CLF (C00504530) total $30,000,000 in this extract, across 224 contributions. That is the join, not Gulford Transportation’s all-committee book of $100,813,470. These figures are not independent expenditures. Original reports remain on FEC.gov.

What is left under GULFORD TRANSPORTATION after $30,000,000 to CLF?

$30,000,000 is 29.8% of the $100,813,470 Gulford Transportation book. The leftover $70,813,470 stayed with other committee IDs under the same grouping string. 29.8% is a share of two FEC fields, not a finding that this grouping preferred CLF as a bloc. Open the Gulford Transportation hub for the remainder.

Are unique donors named for Gulford Transportation × CLF?

No. This packet publishes a dollar total ($30,000,000) and a contribution count (224). It does not name unique donors. Gulford Transportation is filer-entered employer or occupation text, not a verified employee or member list. Inventing names from the grouping or from the committee label would go beyond the facts.

Are these Gulford Transportation dollars USAspending awards?

No. $30,000,000 is itemized individual contributions grouped by employer/industry and recipient committee. The source note states these aggregates are not independent expenditures. FEC receipts and USAspending award files are different datasets. Sharing a grouping string does not turn these gifts into federal obligations.
