Where the money went

$97,029.89 in 66 payments to 23 different recipients since 2023, as this committee itemized them. Itemized payments run through 2025-12-21. Its Spent column below is the full reported figure; where that is larger, the difference is spending the state's itemized file does not carry — most recently because the newest reports have not reached it yet.
