What the record shows ·
Her committee's itemized receipts from political committees in the 2025-2026 cycle filings through June 30, 2026 carry no contribution from any committee the FEC records as corporation-connected, and none from a corporation without capital stock: those two rows are missing from her money table because the filing has nothing to put in them. What it does itemize from committees is $93,500 from 17 labour organization PACs, $48,490 from 11 membership organization PACs, $34,400 from 17 other candidates' committees, $10,720.79 from 3 party committees, $5,000 from one trade association PAC, and $310,537.50 from 79 committees for which the FEC records no organization type at all. Over the same period the incumbent's filing itemizes $706,425.00 from 213 corporation-connected PACs and $11,000 from 2 corporations without capital stock.

Amounts are what the filings record, grouped by the FEC's own committee types. They are not a measure of a candidate's independence, and no contribution here is placed beside any position as its cause.
Limit: The claim is checkable and the filing bears it out on the FEC's own classification: not one itemized contribution from a committee the FEC records as connected to a corporation. The check is only as fine as that classification. 79 of the committees that gave to her carry no recorded organization type, $310,537.50 in all, so this desk cannot say what each of them is. A trade association PAC gave $5,000, and a trade association is a business organization, though the FEC does not record it as corporation-connected. The $2,678,013.78 conduit row is money individuals earmarked through a fundraising platform rather than committee money, and the $856,878.72 of transfers comes from joint fundraising committees. Whether any of that amounts to corporate money is not a question the filings answer, and this desk does not answer it either.
