Rogers Group Inc. PAC
Registered Jan 1990 · Treasurer: Joshua D. Depriest · Nashville, TN
Where the Money Goes
Of the $16,554 this committee reported spending, the largest share — $10,000 (60%) — 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 | $1,554 |
| Contributions to candidates | $5,000 |
- Spent outside Tennessee $10,000 60%
- To TN candidates $5,000 30%
- Operating & other $1,554 9.4%
“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
No contributions to tracked candidates on record.
This committee’s own filings report $5,000 to candidates, while tracked candidates reported receiving $0. Of the $5,000 difference, $5,000 went to recipients not tracked here (itemized below).
Its filing also reports $5,000 in candidate contributions to recipients not tracked here — federal, local, and out-of-state races, and sitting legislators not on the 2026 ballot:
- Tracy, Jim $2,000.00
- Norris, Mark $1,000.00
- Ferguson, Dennis $500.00
- Matheny, Judd $500.00
- McDonald, Mike $500.00
- Gann, Larry $250.00
- Worthington, David $250.00
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.
