Lobbyist contributions received by ACTBLUE

The occupation–committee join for Lobbyist

Rows that match both Lobbyist and C00401224 sum to $1,240,573. The cell holds 11,763 itemized contributions. The total is not an official organization disbursement from Lobbyist as an employer and does not name individual donors.

LOBBYIST is the occupation string as filed. LDA registrations and LDA spending are other federal files. Government Relations and Government Affairs remain neighboring occupation hubs.

What $15,512,853 still holds outside C00401224

$15,512,853 is every harvested committee for occupation LOBBYIST. $1,240,573 is ACTBLUE only. Subtract and $14,272,280 remains. That remainder is still itemized individual receipts; it is simply not this committee.

Do not treat 8.0% as a share of people with the title. The packet has no unique-donor count and no workforce denominator.

What 11,763 itemized lines are not

Do not read 11,763 as a headcount of people currently holding the job. Occupation labels are filer-entered. FEC.gov does not audit job titles against licenses or payroll.

Mean $105 describes this join only. It is not typical pay for Lobbyist.

Volume signature for Lobbyist × ACTBLUE: $1,240,573 on 11,763 lines, mean $105, 8.0% of the $15,512,853 occupation book. $14,272,280 (92.0%) remains with other committees that stored LOBBYIST. Those other recipients are not named here because they are not in the packet. Repeat itemization can raise 11,763 without a published person count. Do not treat the line count as a workforce census or as unique donors. Cycle year is unpublished, so $1,240,573 is not assigned to a single election night.

Correlation is not causation

A shared occupation word and a shared committee ID are not a causal chain. $1,240,573 is the itemized-individual overlap. It is not proof that people listed as Lobbyist directed ACTBLUE, and it is not proof that the gifts bought federal contracts.

All FEC ties collects other joins. Live overlay numbers win if they disagree with this snapshot. FEC.gov remains the originating public record.

This join is self-reported advocacy occupation. It is not a Lobbying Disclosure Act total, Government Relations as a sibling key, or a firm PAC. Neighboring occupation strings—Government relations, government affairs, and public affairs—stay off $1,240,573 unless the stored text was exactly LOBBYIST. FEC itemized individual contributions and USAspending awards are different datasets. Sharing a geography or a famous name does not merge the ledgers. Quote $1,240,573 as receipts tagged LOBBYIST and attributed to C00401224, source FEC.gov, and stop there. Motive, party split, and employer names are not packet fields.

Keeping Lobbyist and ACTBLUE distinct from the hubs

Lobbyist without C00401224 is $15,512,853. C00401224 without Lobbyist is the committee overlay. Lobbyist with C00401224 is $1,240,573. Mixing those three sentences is the usual citation error this page exists to prevent.

Internal links: Lobbyist, ACTBLUE, All occupations, All FEC ties. Anchors stay as supplied in the packet.

Authorized dollars for this join are $1,240,573 in itemized individual contributions, not independent expenditures and not federal awards. The occupation hub total $15,512,853 is every harvested committee for LOBBYIST, not a restatement of C00401224. Contribution count 11,763 should be cited with the dollar cell so the mean $105 is visible. Unique donors are unpublished. FEC.gov is the originating public record. This /ties/lobbyist-to-actblue/ path explains the occupation × committee overlap only.

Occupation hub and committee overlay

The Lobbyist hub holds other committees on the same string. The ACTBLUE overlay holds other occupation keys on the same committee. All FEC ties lists sibling joins. This prose is a packet snapshot. Federal awards that share a name with these gifts remain a different dataset.

Keep both dimensions in the same sentence whenever these dollars are quoted. The stored join is the unit of evidence.

Keep Lobbyist × C00401224 on /ties/lobbyist-to-actblue/ so the occupation hub and the ACTBLUE overlay can stay general. Mixing $1,240,573 into either hub’s headline would hide the join. Overlay /committees/C00401224/ is the committee table. The occupation hub still holds $14,272,280 outside this committee. All occupations lists sibling titles without summing them into this cell. All FEC ties lists other two-dimension pages. Use those indexes to move, not to add dollar figures.

The occupation string LOBBYIST is filer-entered. FEC.gov does not recode it into a license class. Neighboring titles remain other occupation hubs.

Committee C00401224 is the recipient key. Other committees that received the same occupation string sit in the remainder $14,272,280, not on this dollar line.
