  • WORKING FOR WORKING AMERICANS - FEDERAL (C00490847) is the only committee in the cell.

Two keys: C00490847 and election cycle 2018

FEC cycle tags are even years. 2018 therefore covers the paired odd year as well. WORKING FOR WORKING AMERICANS - FEDERAL receipts of $17,048,390.15 are the tagged window, not a single calendar year and not an election-night dump. Disbursements $15,406,443.75 follow the same tag.

Committee type O is independent expenditure-only committee (FEC type O). The packet sets isSuperPac = 0 for this committee-cycle row. Do not relabel the committee as a Super PAC from outside knowledge. Type O is the stored class. Those flags travel with the row. They do not create extra dollar fields.

Internal links stay inside the packet: WORKING FOR WORKING AMERICANS - FEDERAL, the 2018 election cycle, all committees, and all FEC ties. Use them rather than inventing URLs.

Committee identity versus cycle identity

The committee dimension answers who filed. WORKING FOR WORKING AMERICANS - FEDERAL filed. The cycle dimension answers which two-year tag. 2018 is the tag. Receipts $17,048,390.15 require both answers. Dropping either answer misstates the extract. Committee designation B is stored as lobbyist/registrant PAC. Cash on hand in the extract is $1,677,278.81. That is a stored cash-on-hand field, not receipts minus disbursements. Individual contributions are $17,048,390.15. That individual-contribution total matches cycle receipts $17,048,390.15 in this extract; other receipt types are not a leftover dollar in the packet.

2018 type O with designation B and isSuperPac = 0; individual contributions equal cycle receipts at $17,048,390.15. Use that sentence when comparing this URL to another Working for Working Americans cycle page.

2018 receipts are not election-night math

2018 as a label does not rank WORKING FOR WORKING AMERICANS - FEDERAL against peers. Peer ranking would need other committees’ dollars, which this packet does not print. The cycle hub is the place for that table.

A midterm fec two-year window describes the calendar, not the committee type. Type remains O.

Arithmetic on Working for Working Americans cycle totals

Keep Working for Working Americans separate from award files

Banned inference: treating $17,048,390.15 as proof that donations paid for federal awards. They did not, on this record. The record is FEC receipts.
