Paralegal contributions received by ACTBLUE

What the Paralegal / ACTBLUE overlap is

This page is a JOIN between occupation and recipient committee. Paralegal without C00401224 is $5,214,690. C00401224 without Paralegal is the committee overlay. Both keys together are $1,302,099.

PARALEGAL is a support-role stamp. Attorney and Lawyer remain other occupation hubs. A large share of the occupation book on one committee is overlap, not a bar-association vote.

Paralegal across committees

Paralegal dollars are split across many committees in the occupation hub. This file reports one of those committees: ACTBLUE at $1,302,099. 41,735 contributions produced the cell.

Unitemized gifts never enter $1,302,099 or $5,214,690. Independent expenditures are outside the source note.

$31 per contribution is not a salary

$31 is not a wage, not a typical check, and not a unique-person average. It is $1,302,099 divided by 41,735 itemized lines.

Unitemized gifts below itemization thresholds never appear in $1,302,099.

Volume signature for Paralegal × ACTBLUE: $1,302,099 on 41,735 lines, mean $31, 25.0% of the $5,214,690 occupation book. $3,912,591 (75.0%) remains with other committees that stored PARALEGAL. Those other recipients are not named here because they are not in the packet. Repeat itemization can raise 41,735 without a published person count. Do not treat the line count as a workforce census or as unique donors. Cycle year is unpublished, so $1,302,099 is not assigned to a single election night.

What sits outside PARALEGAL × C00401224

Committee transfers, independent expenditures, and unitemized gifts sit outside $1,302,099. Employer breakdowns are unpublished. Do not infer a named firm from Paralegal.

The grouping is self-reported legal-support occupation. It is not a paralegal-certificate census, Attorney as a sibling key, or a law-firm PAC.

This join is self-reported legal-support occupation. It is not a paralegal-certificate census, Attorney as a sibling key, or a law-firm PAC. Neighboring occupation strings—Legal assistant, attorney, and lawyer—stay off $1,302,099 unless the stored text was exactly PARALEGAL. FEC itemized individual contributions and USAspending awards are different datasets. Sharing a geography or a famous name does not merge the ledgers. Quote $1,302,099 as receipts tagged PARALEGAL and attributed to C00401224, source FEC.gov, and stop there. Motive, party split, and employer names are not packet fields.
