Where the Money Goes
Of the $39,268 this committee reported spending, the largest share — $35,000 (89%) — went to activity outside Tennessee.
Why this number?
Operating share of spending compares operating spending with total spent.
Show formula
Operating / overhead spending divided by everything this committee spent (each expenditure lands in exactly one bucket).
| Operating / overhead spending | $1,268 |
| Contributions to candidates | $3,000 |
- Spent outside Tennessee $35,000 89%
- To TN candidates $3,000 7.6%
- Operating & other $1,268 3.2%
“Spent outside Tennessee” is money this committee sent out of state — a multi-state committee’s lump non-Tennessee line plus any individually-filed out-of-state contributions (itemized below). Separate from out-of-state donors.
Contributions to Candidates
No contributions to tracked candidates on record.
This committee’s own filings report $3,000 to candidates, while tracked candidates reported receiving $0. Of the $3,000 difference, $3,000 went to recipients not tracked here (itemized below).
Its filing also reports $3,000 in candidate contributions to recipients not tracked here — federal, local, and out-of-state races, and sitting legislators not on the 2026 ballot:
- Diane Black for Congress $1,500.00
- Green (Senate), Mark E. $1,500.00
Tennessee caps what a PAC may give one candidate per election — $15,400 for statewide and House races, $30,800 for Senate races (2025–26 limits; a primary and a general count as separate elections). Registry of Election Finance limits.
Given in Other States
This committee sent $35,000 to 11 candidates and committees outside Tennessee, across 8 states. These are counted as spending outside Tennessee, not as Tennessee candidate support — Who Funds Tennessee doesn’t track out-of-state races, so they don’t link to a page here.
