Raytheon Company contributions received by EMPLOYEES OF RTX CORPORATION POLITICAL ACTION COMMITTEE

Raytheon Company as stored, RTX PAC as the recipient

RAYTHEON COMPANY is the grouped employer key. EMPLOYEES OF RTX CORPORATION POLITICAL ACTION COMMITTEE is committee C00097568. This page reports itemized individual gifts that carried both labels. The $6,543,722 figure is the intersection. After the Raytheon–United Technologies combination, the parent brand became RTX; FEC PAC names can update while employer strings on old receipts still say RAYTHEON COMPANY.

The join does not merge RAYTHEON, RTX, UNITED TECHNOLOGIES, or COLLINS AEROSPACE into one bucket. Those strings, if stored, are other rows. Matching RAYTHEON COMPANY to an RTX employees’ PAC does not prove every filer worked for the post-rename parent, and it does not prove the company reimbursed the gifts.

Eighty-one thousand one hundred sixty contributions is a high-volume connected-PAC file. Line count is not a headcount of RTX.

Seventy-one percent of the Raytheon Company grouping

The RAYTHEON COMPANY grouping shows $9,184,164 in itemized individual money. The RTX employees’ PAC cell is $6,543,722, or about 71% of that total. About 29% of RAYTHEON COMPANY-coded receipts went to other committees. Those leftover dollars are on the industry hub.

A 71% share is concentrated overlap across a rename. Concentration does not mean the industry hub and the PAC hub are the same list. Candidate committees still received a slice of the employer string.

81,160 contributions and an $81 mean

EMPLOYEES OF RTX CORPORATION POLITICAL ACTION COMMITTEE received $6,543,722 from RAYTHEON COMPANY-coded receipts across 81,160 contributions. Dividing dollars by gifts gives about $81 per contribution. High line counts and modest means are common when payroll-style PAC deductions are itemized over many cycles, including cycles before and after a corporate rename.

Repeat givers raise the contribution count. The packet does not publish a unique-donor figure or a pre-/post-rename split. The committee overlay for C00097568 also includes receipts whose employer field did not group to RAYTHEON COMPANY.

Defense names on FEC versus USAspending

Raytheon and RTX appear in federal contracting. Those USAspending obligations are not these PAC gifts. This join does not claim that the employees’ PAC funded missile or radar awards, or that awards funded PAC contributions. A rename on one ledger does not move dollars on the other.

The employer field can lag a merger for years. Correlation between a Raytheon employer string and an RTX PAC is a reporting pattern, not causation of procurement outcomes.

How to read the rename without inventing a merger total

The Raytheon Company industry page keeps the $9,184,164 grouping under the stored employer key. The RTX employees’ PAC page keeps C00097568 under the registered committee name. All industries ranks RTX, United Technologies, and other defense keys separately if present. All FEC ties lists neighboring cells so this 71% overlap is not padded with those other strings.

The leftover 29% of $9,184,164 is RAYTHEON COMPANY-coded money that did not go to the RTX employees' PAC. RTX as an employer string, if indexed, is another key and is not in the 71% share. About $81 per contribution is $6,543,722 divided by 81,160. The rename on the PAC side does not rewrite historical employer text on the receipts.

Rename lag: how to cite Raytheon into RTX without merging keys

The accurate citation keeps both labels: $6,543,722 of $9,184,164 grouped to RAYTHEON COMPANY and received by EMPLOYEES OF RTX CORPORATION POLITICAL ACTION COMMITTEE (C00097568) across 81,160 itemized contributions, about 71%. It does not recode those receipts as RTX-employer gifts. UNITED TECHNOLOGIES and COLLINS AEROSPACE, if stored, stay other rows.

Unitemized gifts are omitted. Independent expenditures are omitted. USAspending missile, radar, or other awards that mention Raytheon or RTX are omitted. Repeat givers raise 81,160 above any unique-person figure the packet does not publish. Quote the employer key as RAYTHEON COMPANY even when the PAC letterhead says RTX, because that is how the join is stored.

Questions

How much did Raytheon Company-coded donors give the RTX employees’ PAC?

FEC.gov aggregates show $6,543,722 in itemized individual contributions grouped to RAYTHEON COMPANY and received by EMPLOYEES OF RTX CORPORATION POLITICAL ACTION COMMITTEE (C00097568). That join covers 81,160 contributions. The employer grouping across all committees is $9,184,164. These figures are not independent expenditures.

What share of Raytheon Company FEC money went to this PAC?

About 71% of the $9,184,164 RAYTHEON COMPANY total is in this join: $6,543,722 to C00097568. The leftover share went to other committees. A 71% share describes overlap across a stored employer name and a renamed PAC, not a merged RTX+Raytheon total.

Does this include people who listed RTX as their employer?

Only if the grouped employer text is RAYTHEON COMPANY. RTX as an employer string would be another key if stored separately. This page does not recode the rename into one bucket. Figures are limited to the labeled join.

Do these PAC gifts fund Raytheon or RTX federal contracts?

No. FEC individual contributions and USAspending obligations are different datasets. Sharing a defense-company name does not create a funding pipeline. This tie reports only the employer-committee intersection on itemized individual receipts.
