Social Worker political contributions from Massachusetts

Social Worker and Massachusetts as a double-digit dollar-share join

Occupation SOCIAL WORKER and donor state MA produce $1,733,608, 12,654 contributions, and 265 donors. The occupation hub is $16,549,179, 159,789 contributions, and 3,156 donors. Dollar, contribution, and donor shares cluster within a few points (10.5%, 7.9%, 8.4%). Massachusetts tracks the national Social Worker mix rather than concentrating one of the three measures. Massachusetts Social Worker dollars sit near one-tenth of a smaller national clinical title.

Social Worker is a two-word clinical title as typed. Nearby strings — LICSW, LCSW, THERAPIST, and CASE MANAGER — sit in other occupation hubs when filers used those words. Do not stack those dollar figures onto $1,733,608 or $16,549,179. SOCIAL WORKER as a national label is contribution-heavy relative to its donor count.

265 Massachusetts donors produced 12,654 contributions, about 47.8 itemized rows per donor in this join, versus about 50.6 rows per donor nationally (159,789 contributions from 3,156 donors). Mean dollars per donor in this Massachusetts cell are about $6,542, versus about $5,244 across the occupation. Those ratios are arithmetic on the six packet numbers, not a gift-size ranking of influence.

SOCIAL WORKER without an LCSW recode

SOCIAL WORKER is filer-entered. The FEC file does not verify an LCSW, LICSW, or Massachusetts social-work license. The national grouping is 3,156 donors, 159,789 contributions, and $16,549,179.

159,789 contributions from 3,156 donors shows repeat itemization nationwide. Massachusetts’s 12,654 contributions from 265 donors is the MA-coded piece. This page does not split those rows by cycle, employer, or recipient committee. It locates how much of the labeled money is also coded to Massachusetts.

Two hundred sixty-five Massachusetts Social Worker donors

265 Massachusetts donors produced 12,654 contributions totaling $1,733,608. Donor state MA is the address on the record, not proof of a Massachusetts professional license, and not a limit to Massachusetts candidates. Recipients can be any FEC-filing committee.

The Massachusetts campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to MA. This join is only SOCIAL WORKER. Subtract $1,733,608 from $16,549,179 and $14,815,571 remains coded Social Worker in every other state combined (147,135 contributions, 2,891 donors). That remainder has no row-by-row breakdown here because those states are other ties.

This page does not measure social worker output, does not rank firms, and does not claim that Social Worker-coded money caused any electoral result. Occupation plus state is a bookkeeping join. Correlation is not causation. Not a Massachusetts Board of Registration of Social Workers extract, not an NASW membership roll, and not a DCF staffing census.

Unitemized gifts and independent expenditures are omitted. FEC.gov is the source. Occupation labels are filer-entered. Itemized individual contributions only. Firm names, license numbers, and employer strings are not in these six numbers. Donor state MA is not recipient geography.

Social-work titles that remain other hubs

A unique-donor count is not a person-level audit. The FEC aggregate can merge similar names or split one person who filed under variants. A contribution count can be many small itemized rows. A dollar total can hide that skew. Keeping $1,733,608, 12,654 contributions, and 265 donors on the same page is the point of the join: quoting only the Massachusetts dollars, or only the Social Worker national total, drops a key.

Social Worker donations holds the $16,549,179 national occupation total. Massachusetts campaign finance holds the state’s itemized individual activity across occupations. All occupations and all FEC ties collect other occupation-state pairs from the same two fields. LICSW, LCSW, THERAPIST, is a different occupation string if a filer used it.

This relationship is not a forecast and not a ranking of influence. Occupation does not cause contributions, and donor state does not cause recipient geography. Public records, two fields, one intersection. FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates; occupation labels are filer-entered. SOCIAL WORKER as a national label is contribution-heavy relative to its donor count.
