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.

  • Finance & banking$29K
  • Technology$21K
  • Telecom & media$16K

Where the money goes

live· 2026 cycle

Schatz's campaign has spent $490K across 398 reported disbursements.

Top payees
  • O'BEIRNE, MAX$131K
  • BUSINESS CARD SERVICES$80K
  • LAFAVE, LORI B.$78K
  • WELL & LIGHTHOUSE LLC$44K
  • CAPITOL COMPLIANCE ASSOCIATES$34K
  • NGP VAN, INC.$32K
Fundraising & event venues
  • O'BEIRNE, MAXWASHINGTON, DC · 15 payments$129K
  • THE NATIONAL PRESS CLUB DCWASHINGTON, DC$4K
  • COMCASTPHILADELPHIA, PA$351
  • NEKOTA, CAMERONHONOLULU, HI$250

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.
