What THE IMPACT FUND's influence footprint shows
THE IMPACT FUND is an outside-spending committee: rather than contributing to candidates' committees, it reported $2.8M in independent expenditures to the Federal Election Commission - $2.8M advocating for candidates and $55K opposing them, across 6 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, THE IMPACT FUND's PAC contributions reached 10 federal politicians, led by S. Raja Krishnamoorthi at $10K.
