Oil Producer contributions received by NRSC

The Oil Producer × NRSC overlap

LobbyVault stores employer/industry strings separately from committees. Crossing them for Oil Producer and NRSC yields $340,583. That is 8,502 itemized lines. The figure is not a committee disbursement and not a company political budget.

Keep $7,725,244 on the Oil Producer hub and keep C00027466 for receipts from every employer. Only the overlap is $340,583. About 4.4% of the grouping sits here; $7,384,661 (95.6%) does not.

Because the grouping is occupation/employer text, not a NAICS oil-extraction code, the cell is a text match. Household members and former workers can reuse a workplace or title. The Commission does not audit those claims on this aggregate.

Oil Producer is job-like form text

On FEC Form 3, employer and occupation are typed fields. OIL PRODUCER survived grouping as Oil Producer. That is not a Dunn-style firm ID and not a donor page. People who typed a longer legal name sit elsewhere.

For a job string, the usual error is treating $7,725,244 as a company political budget. $7,725,244 is summed itemized individual receipts that matched this text. $340,583 is the slice that also matched C00027466. The 4.4% ratio is $340,583 divided by $7,725,244. Other committee joins for OIL PRODUCER are not listed in this packet; they collectively hold $7,384,661. Citing NRSC as if it were the Oil Producer lifetime total would overstate this cell by $7,384,661.

What C00027466 holds besides this cell

The committee hub still contains every other employer string. This tie keeps Oil Producer on. Without an all-employer committee total in the facts, $340,583 cannot be turned into a percent of NRSC national receipts.

4.4% remains a share of the Oil Producer grouping ($7,725,244), not a share of C00027466. Mixing those denominators is the usual citation error. A mean of $40 per itemized line can hide a few large receipts. The packet supplies no median and no unique-donor count. 8,502 contributions remain a line count, not a headcount.

Where $7,384,661 still sits

After this cell of $340,583, $7,384,661 of the Oil Producer grouping remains on other committees. That remainder is 95.6% of $7,725,244. The NRSC page is not empty of other employers; this file simply does not add them.

Percentages here use packet facts only. No committee-wide denominator is supplied, so no “share of NRSC” claim is possible. 4.4% is Oil Producer-internal. Oil Producer as occupation/employer text, not a NAICS oil-extraction code can appear in contracting databases under similar names. Those obligation tables are not this $340,583. The join does not claim a payment trail from campaign gifts to federal awards or the reverse.

Form text is not a payroll file

FEC employer fields are typed by filers. OIL PRODUCER is stored as written for this grouping. The Commission does not verify employment, professional licenses, or corporate identity on this aggregate. Oil Producer here is occupation/employer text, not a NAICS oil-extraction code.

PAC filings, independent expenditures, and unitemized gifts are other tables. USAspending obligations are another database entirely. $340,583 does not fund federal awards, and federal awards do not explain $340,583. Quote both keys: Oil Producer and NRSC. Quote the dollars: $340,583. Quote the volume: 8,502 contributions. Quote the source: FEC.gov. Leave NAICS codes and named donors out.

A citation template for this join

Suggested citation: FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates, employer/industry grouping OIL PRODUCER, recipient committee NRSC (C00027466), $340,583, 8,502 contributions (4.4% of $7,725,244 stored for the string).

Do not append NAICS codes, USAspending dollars, or named donors. Those facts are not in the packet. If a later overlay revises $340,583, the overlay controls. Unitemized individual gifts never enter $340,583. Independent expenditures and PAC disbursements are other FEC tables. Sharing a company-like string does not merge those ledgers with C00027466. Restating the join without new numbers: Oil Producer at NRSC is $340,583 from 8,502 itemized individual contributions on FEC.gov. The same string stores $7,725,244 across committees, so this recipient is about 4.4% and other committees hold $7,384,661 (95.6%). The grouping is occupation/employer text, not a NAICS oil-extraction code, not an independent-producer PAC, a named-operator roster, or OIL AND GAS as a sibling key. No donor names, unique-donor count, party split, or USAspending dollars are in this packet. Live overlay pages override this snapshot. Mean gift size is about $40. That mean is arithmetic, not a median. Independent expenditures remain outside $340,583.
