370 committees filed here · money into 2026 federal races
Groups placed by what they are for: their own site and statement, a government record of what they do, or a published source a reviewer cites, checked against what they do. A name or an ad theme is not a cause. A group with one cause stays in it even when it spends on one race, unless it was set up only for that race. A group set up and funded by another group’s network is filed with that network.

Who the money went to
Gifts to campaigns and ads for a candidate count as backing; ads against a candidate as opposing.
Once the committees that fund these groups are followed back, these people turn up behind two or more of them. The amount is the most traced to the person into any one group; the same dollars can pass from one group to another, so amounts are not added across groups.
