Each part reads different filings, so counts and totals can differ.
Direct PAC contributions and independent expenditures explicitly reported as support, by the party of the candidate they went to.
| Party of the candidate | Candidates | Direct | Independent | Amount | Share |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Democratic | 149 | $361,000 | $0 | $361,000 | 76% |
| Republican | 22 | $96,500 | $0 | $96,500 | 20% |
| Other or unresolved | 9 | $19,000 | $0 | $19,000 | 4% |
| Shown support | 180 | $476,500 | $0 | $476,500 | 100% |
Contributions are reported money, not endorsements; a PAC giving to both parties is common.
Every contribution on line 23 of the committee’s own Schedule B, which is the filing its summary totals are built from. That line covers federal candidates, party committees and other political committees alike, so a super PAC funding other super PACs appears here rather than under candidate giving.

| Democratic candidates | 148 | $358.5K · 38% |
| Republican candidates | 21 | $95.5K · 10% |

$1.7M spent from Jan 2025 to Oct 2026. Most in one report: $448.5K, Jan 1 – Jun 30, 2025.
The running total of what the committee’s FEC reports say it spent, independent expenditures included, with a point at the end of each report. The line is straight between reports because a report gives one total for its whole period.
Besides giving through its PAC, National Active and Retired Federal Employees Association pays lobbyists to press Congress and federal agencies. Each quarter it, or a firm it hires, files a public report under the Lobbying Disclosure Act saying which topics it worked on, what it spent, and whom it contacted. This is what those reports say.
Each report files its work under official topics. The bar shows how often each topic came up across the reports; open one to read what was filed under it. Naming a bill says the organization lobbied on it, not which side it took.
The organization’s own reports give its total lobbying costs, including any firms it hired; each firm reports what this client paid it.
Reported twice a year by the lobbying filer. $66.5K is political giving that also appears in FEC filings.
Matched by name: these reports are filed for “NATIONAL ACTIVE AND RETIRED FEDERAL EMPLOYEES ASSOCIATION”, found by searching “NATIONAL ACTIVE AND RETIRED FEDERAL”.

By the state each contributor wrote on the filing. The FEC aggregates every Schedule A line together, so one committee or organization transfer can account for a whole state. Contributors who have given $200 or less this cycle are not itemized and cannot be placed on a map. The FEC’s grouping also counts joint-fundraising memo lines, so these rows can add up to more than the itemized total.
