Largest PACs and committees giving to the campaign this cycle, from FEC committee-to-candidate filings. The FEC doesn't tag donors by industry — the names usually tell you, and OpenSecrets has the formal industry breakdown below.

Where the money goes

live· 2026 cycle

Justice's campaign has spent $572K across 329 reported disbursements.

Top payees
  • SWITZER, MORGAN$150K
  • AMERICAN EXPRESS$92K
  • RIGHTSIDE COMPLIANCE$90K
  • GREENBRIER CHEVROLET$77K
  • CMDI$61K
  • AGEE, MARK$46K
Fundraising & event venues
  • WELL DUNN CATERINGHYATTSVILLE, MD$18K

These are the venues, caterers, and hotels the campaign paidfor events — the money trail to where fundraising happened, with the vendor's city and state. It is not a guest list or attendance: who came, who hosted, and “what the crowd was like” aren't in any public record, so we don't guess at them.

Categories are grouped by keyword from the free-text purpose each campaign reports to the FEC, so the split is a guide, not an audit. Otheris spending whose reported purpose didn't clearly fit a category — campaigns describe disbursements inconsistently. Totals are for the candidate's campaign committees this cycle; see the FEC for the line-by-line record.
