Key figures
- $1,000,000 is the Fort Worth, TX × SLF PAC (C00571703) itemized join.
- $117,875,456 is the all-committee Fort Worth, TX book; this committee is 0.85% of that book.

- City labels are filer-entered; this packet is not independent expenditures.
- If the live hub or overlay disagrees, the newer FEC extract controls.
Fort Worth, TX itemized gifts tagged to SLF PAC
$1,000,000 requires both keys at once: contributor city FORT WORTH with state TX, and recipient committee C00571703 disclosed as SLF PAC. LobbyVault keeps a Fort Worth, TX city hub and a SLF PAC committee hub. Neither hub is this page. The city hub lists every committee that received itemized gifts storing this city string. The committee hub lists every city that gave to C00571703. This URL is only the intersection.
The packet does not name unique donors, contribution counts, or election cycles for this pair. $1,000,000 is a dollar aggregate. Treating it as a typical gift size or as a count of households is arithmetic the file does not support.
The overlay, when present, points at the live committee path for C00571703. If that overlay or a later FEC extract disagrees with $1,000,000, the Commission’s filing controls. This JSON is a snapshot of one grouped extract.
Putting $117,875,456 in context
Fort Worth, TX’s all-committee itemized book in this extract is $117,875,456. $1,000,000 is 0.85% of that book. A thin or moderate share is the usual result of comparing one committee with every other recipient on the city tape. The leftover $116,875,456 went to other committees under FORT WORTH, or sits outside this recipient filter.
The stored city sits in Texas. Neighboring municipalities are not absorbed into FORT WORTH. Texas campaign-finance pages include other cities. All FEC ties lists other city-committee pages. None of them converts $1,000,000 into spending by Fort Worth, TX candidates or into independent expenditures by SLF PAC.
Committee SLF PAC on one ID
C00571703 is disclosed as SLF PAC. This page does not list independent expenditures the committee made, operating expenditures it paid, or earmark destinations beyond the labeled recipient. $1,000,000 is itemized individual receipts storing city FORT WORTH and committee C00571703. Other cities giving to SLF PAC appear on the committee hub. Adding them here would break the city filter.
Quote the committee with its FEC ID so a similarly named filing is not swapped in. SLF PAC on another ID is a different page. This URL is Fort Worth, TX × C00571703, not Texas × C00571703 and not every spelling of FORT WORTH. If a live overlay at the committee path disagrees with $1,000,000, the overlay and FEC.gov control.
Arithmetic of the leftover
0.85% of $117,875,456 is $1,000,000 to SLF PAC (C00571703). That percentage describes overlap of two FEC groupings, not a finding that residents of Fort Worth, TX as a group preferred this committee. Most of the $117,875,456 city book went to other committees. Even when 0.85% is a visible slice, the slice is still only the C00571703 filter.
The leftover $116,875,456 under the FORT WORTH city string went to other committees. The Fort Worth, TX hub holds that remainder. The SLF PAC page holds receipts whose city field did not store FORT WORTH. Do not stack this cell with another city’s gifts to C00571703; each join is its own filter.
What correlation is not
Unitemized federal gifts sit outside $1,000,000. Texas state-office filings sit outside it. Independent expenditures are a different FEC file; the source note on this packet says these aggregates are not independent expenditures. City labels are filer-entered. PAC or joint-fundraising addresses that stored this city string follow the same rule as household streets.
Do not read $1,000,000 as proof that Fort Worth, TX “funded” SLF PAC as a municipal act, or that the committee spent the money in Texas. The join is two fields. Correlation is not causation. FEC individual contributions are not USAspending awards. This packet has no obligation dollars and no award counts. Do not add $1,000,000 to federal spending in Texas.
Contribution lines can cluster in a few ZIPs or spread across many. This packet does not list those ZIPs or a donor headcount. Open the city hub and the committee hub rather than guessing a postal split from the city string alone. Fort Worth’s SLF PAC cell is a round $1,000,000 against $117,875,456 (0.85%). A round million is still the published FEC aggregate for FORT WORTH × C00571703, not a cap or a goal. Leftover under the city string: $116,875,456.
FEC.gov versus this snapshot
Internal links go to Fort Worth, TX, SLF PAC, Texas campaign finance, and All FEC ties. Use those four doors. The city page holds the $117,875,456 book and the committees that received the leftover $116,875,456. The committee page holds C00571703 receipts from every city. All FEC ties collects neighboring pairs without mixing independent expenditures into this cell.
Researchers citing the join should keep both nouns in the sentence: Fort Worth, TX and SLF PAC (C00571703). Dropping either noun turns this page into a restatement of a hub it is not. $1,000,000 is the only overlap this extract published. A later amendment wave can move a dollar without this file rewriting itself. Treat the live LobbyVault hub as newer than this packet snapshot.
Cite $1,000,000, $117,875,456, 0.85%, leftover $116,875,456, and C00571703. Keep both sides named: FORT WORTH as filer-entered city, SLF PAC as recipient. Motive is outside the packet. Unitemized gifts never appear. Live hubs override this snapshot. If the overlay disagrees, the overlay and FEC.gov control.
