Who’s writing
the checks?

These are the super PACs and committees we track. Each one is a real FEC-registered entity filing independent expenditures in our focus races. We start with the AI industry’s biggest vehicle — Leading the Future — and add committees as new industries and players move money into these races.

Why just these committees?

Our sync ingests every super PAC that files in our focus races — but we only surface a committee on the public site once an editor has verified its industry ties and flipped it to tracked. That’s why the list here is shorter than the full FEC universe. The full workflow is on the methodology page.
