Context Missing details

3 of 4 donors giving over $500 listed with no employer or occupation

For anyone who gives more than $500 in a reporting period, a report must list their occupation and employer, or say the committee made a good-faith effort to find out. These list neither.

What to check
  • The committee may have filed an amendment adding them.
  • A retiree or someone not employed should still be listed as such.
