MAJORITY is an outside-spending committee: rather than contributing to candidates' committees, it reported $2.3M in independent expenditures to the Federal Election Commission - $271K advocating for candidates and $2.0M opposing them, across 17 races. By law these expenditures are made independently of, and uncoordinated with, any campaign, and they are not subject to contribution limits, which is how a single committee can deploy this scale of money. They are reported here separately from contributions because they are a fundamentally different mechanism of political influence.
On the campaign side, MAJORITY's PAC contributions reached 15 federal politicians, led by Darrell Issa at $10K.

| Darrell Issa | R | $10K |
| Vince Fong | R | $6K |
| Sheryl Adams | R | $5K |
