U S Embassy political contributions from Atlanta, GA

How U S Embassy meets Atlanta, GA on the FEC tape

$19,000 is the intersection of two stored fields: employer/industry grouping U S EMBASSY and contributor city ATLANTA with state GA. LobbyVault keeps an Atlanta, GA city hub and a U S Embassy industry hub. Neither hub is this page. The city hub is every industry string in Atlanta. The industry hub is that employer string in every city. This file keeps both filters on at once.

One contribution from 1 donor produced $19,000. Here the receipt count equals the donor count. One donor is the headcount in this extract for the join, not a census of everyone in Atlanta who ever used a related diplomatic label. Arithmetic mean per receipt is $19,000; per donor, $19,000. Those means are division of packet facts, not typical salaries and not medians.

U S EMBASSY is an exact employer string on the itemization, including the spacing as stored. Other spellings such as embassy, State Department, or a named post are other keys. $19,000 counts only rows that stored this string in Atlanta, GA. The label does not, by itself, prove posting, citizenship, or duty station.

Atlanta's all-industry book versus this employer string

Atlanta, GA's all-industry itemized book in this extract is $381,643,337 across 915,916 contributions. $19,000 is under 0.1% of that city book. A thin share is expected when the industry key is an exact string: most Atlanta receipts use other employer labels. Do not treat under 0.1% as a diplomatic sector's weight in Atlanta unless the packet listed a sector roll-up. It lists U S EMBASSY only.

The stored city sits in Georgia. Other Georgia city strings are other keys, not addends to $19,000. Georgia campaign-finance pages include those other cities. Do not add $19,000 to the state hub; the state extract already contains these rows when the same tape is used. All FEC ties lists other city-industry pages. None of them converts $19,000 into spending by Atlanta candidates.

The U S Embassy side outside Atlanta

The U S Embassy industry hub is the same stored string in every city, not a Georgia-only table. $19,000 is the Atlanta, GA slice published for this pair. A donor in another city who stored U S EMBASSY is not in this join. A donor in Atlanta who stored a different employer string is not in this join either. This packet publishes $19,000 with 1 contribution and 1 donor for the overlap.

This packet does not name committees, parties, or cycles for the U S Embassy × Atlanta, GA overlap. Open the live U S Embassy page and the live Atlanta, GA page for those breakdowns if the extract publishes them. Quote the join with both nouns in the same sentence so a downstream citation cannot drop a side.

What the Atlanta × U S Embassy dollars omit

Unitemized federal gifts sit outside $19,000. Georgia state-office filings sit outside it. Independent expenditures are a different FEC file. City labels and industry labels are both filer-entered; LobbyVault does not recode ATLANTA into a Census place or U S EMBASSY into a standardized occupation. PAC or joint-fundraising addresses that stored this pair of strings follow the same rule as household streets.

Do not read $19,000 as proof that an embassy controls Atlanta politics. The join is two fields. Correlation is not causation. If the live hubs disagree with $19,000 or 1 donor, the newer FEC extract controls. This snapshot is not a third disclosure system. Do not treat the one-donor cluster as a diplomatic finding.

Using Atlanta, GA and U S Embassy links without mixing statutes

Internal links go to Atlanta, GA, U S Embassy, Georgia campaign finance, and All FEC ties. Use those four doors. FEC individual contributions are not USAspending awards. This packet has no obligation dollars and no award counts. Do not add $19,000 to federal spending in Georgia. Campaign receipts and federal awards are different statutes even when both mention Atlanta.

Researchers citing the join should keep both nouns in the sentence: U S Embassy and Atlanta, GA. Dropping either noun turns this page into a restatement of a hub it is not. $19,000 across 1 receipt from 1 donor is the only overlap this extract published. Do not add $19,000 to $381,643,337; the first number is already inside the second.

Questions

How much did U S Embassy donors in Atlanta, GA give?

Itemized FEC individual contributions storing U S EMBASSY and city ATLANTA total $19,000 across 1 receipt from 1 donor in this extract. That is the join, not Atlanta, GA's all-industry book of $381,643,337. Original reports remain on FEC.gov.

Does U S Embassy in Atlanta include every related diplomatic spelling?

No. U S EMBASSY is the exact stored string. Other employer spellings are other keys and are omitted from $19,000. One donor and 1 receipt follow that exact-match rule. LobbyVault does not map the field to a State Department roster.

What share of Atlanta, GA itemized money is U S Embassy?

$19,000 is under 0.1% of the $381,643,337 Atlanta, GA city book (915,916 city-field contributions). A thin share usually means other employer strings dominate the city tape. Quote both dollars. Do not upgrade under 0.1% into a sector ranking.

Do U S Embassy donations in Atlanta fund federal spending there?

No. These figures are FEC individual contributions, not USAspending awards. $19,000 does not become a contract because both rows can mention Atlanta. Different statutes, different forms. This packet has no obligation dollars. Filings remain on FEC.gov.
