Faison Freedom PAC
Registered Sep 2019 · Treasurer: Miriam Faison · Newport, TN
Where the Money Goes
Of the $17,782 this committee reported spending, the largest share — $17,531 (99%) — went to operating costs and overhead. Operating costs consumed 99% of everything it spent; none of it reached Tennessee candidates as direct contributions.
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 | $17,531 |
| Contributions to candidates | $0 |
- Operating & other $17,531 99%
- Spent outside Tennessee $251 1.4%
“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
| Candidate | Office | Party | Total |
|---|---|---|---|
| Jessie Seal | Tennessee Senate, District 08 | Rep. | $3,857.00 |
Tracked candidates reported receiving $3,857 from this committee — $3,857 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.
