Left: what the group raised, from reports through Oct. 14, 2026. Donors are its largest single contributions. “Everyone else” is the rest of what it raised; select it to see more donors. Right: its outside spending through Oct. 30, 2026, including 24- and 48-hour reports. The two sides come from different reports, so they don’t add up to each other.

Where its money went

  • Given: the group’s own contributions to the campaign

Who funds it

Largest single contributions this cycle, as of Oct. 31, 2026. Committees and organizations link to their own pages when they file with the FEC; an organization that doesn’t file won’t show its own donors here.
