What this page is — and is not

Every amount here was given by an individual who wrote this name in the “employer” box of a contribution. It is that person's own money and their own description of where they work. It is not money from the company, and the company did not necessarily know about it. Built from state, federal (FEC) and county filings; the split is shown below.
