What Nextgen Climate Action Committee's recorded federal activity shows
Nextgen Climate Action Committee is an outside-spending committee: rather than contributing to candidates' committees, it reported $2.6M in independent expenditures to the Federal Election Commission - $2.6M advocating for candidates and $0 opposing them, across 1 race. 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.
Its lobbying profile spans 2 reporting years across 13 distinct LDA issue areas, with emphasis on Civil Rights/Civil Liberties, Environment/Superfund, Budget/Appropriations.
