Where the money comes from

$28,775,495.65 received across 208,847 itemized cash contributions since 2023-01-01, per state disclosure records. Its reports show $38,161,141.17 in cash raised in the same span — the $9,385,645.52 difference is small gifts reported as one lump sum, plus recent reports the state hasn't broken out donor-by-donor yet. Separately, and not counted above or in the mix below: $46,622.52 in in-kind support (34 filings) — goods and services donated rather than money . The cash figure also includes $648,370.16 in interest the campaign's own bank accounts earned ( 26 postings from Community Choice Credit Union ) — Iowa filings report interest as a Schedule A entry under the bank's name, but it is account income, not a donation, and it is not ranked among the donors below.

Where the money went

$10,750,945.30 in 3,170 payments to 393 different recipients since 2023, as this committee itemized them. Itemized payments run through 2026-05-26. 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.
