Insurance Agent contributions to IIABA INSURPAC

A trade PAC on a minority of the occupation book

12.9% of Insurance Agent itemized dollars landed on INSURPAC. $22,011,886 (87.1%) went to other federal committees. A named trade PAC can be a large dollar join without capturing most of an occupation’s candidate giving.

16,842 receipts at mean $194 is a mid-count pattern. Unique donors are unpublished. Repeat itemizations can raise the count.

C00022343 as INSURPAC

Association dues are not this table. Independent expenditures are excluded. Cycle year is not in the packet. Cite FEC.gov for the live committee file.

Amended Schedule A filings move $3,268,449 and $25,280,335. 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 12.9 percent does not prove

12.9% is INSURPAC’s share of the Insurance Agent occupation book, not IIABA membership and not the occupation’s share of the PAC. Inverting the percentage needs the PAC’s all-occupation total, which is not here.

Do not add the shorter Agent join to New York Life PAC into this total. That is a different occupation key and a different committee. All FEC ties keeps both pages separate.
