Where the money goes

live· 2026 cycle

Schumer's campaign has spent $1.8M across 405 reported disbursements.

Top payees
  • PAYCHEX, INC.$624K
  • AMERICAN EXPRESS$175K
  • TRILOGY INTERACTIVE, LLC$160K
  • ASCEND DIGITAL STRATEGIES, LLC$119K

  • FULKERSON KENNEDY & COMPANY$72K
Fundraising & event venues
  • PARTY FOR A LIFETIMENEW YORK, NY$9K
  • BENTLEY BANQUET & CONFERENCE CENTERWYANDOTTE, MI$4K

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.
