Where the Money Goes

Of the $3,800 this committee reported spending, the largest share — $3,800 (100%) — went to operating costs and overhead. Operating costs consumed 100% of everything it spent; none of it reached Tennessee candidates as direct contributions.

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 spending: $3,800 ÷ Total spent: $3,800
Inputs behind Operating share of spending
Operating / overhead spending $3,800
Contributions to candidates $0

Contributions to Candidates

Contributions to tracked candidates
Candidate Office Party Total
Joey Hensley Tennessee Senate, District 28 Rep. $1,000.00

Tracked candidates reported receiving $1,000 from this committee — $1,000 more than its own filings itemize ($0), because their receipt filings posted ahead of the committee’s covering report or span more cycles than its loaded filings.

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.
