As recorded in other committees' filings
Every transfer is reported twice — by the payer and by the recipient. The tables above are this committee's own filings. These rows are what other committees reported about it. The two sides are shown separately and never merged: if they disagree, that disagreement is itself worth a look.
Activity over time
By filing year. Gaps are gaps in the filed record, not proof of inactivity.
