Cole Combined Committee

A joint fundraising committee raising for Representative Tom Cole of Oklahoma and allied committees.

$1 million

given directly to sitting members of Congress, across their careers on file. Direct PAC contributions are capped by law and reported by name.

102

current members received at least one contribution—0 Democrats and 101 Republicans. A contribution is context, not proof of influence: plenty of groups give to members who already agree with them.

$36.5 million

spent separately on independent ads about candidates. That money never reaches anyone's campaign and is never added to the figure on the left.

Who received its money

Spent about candidates, separately

Independent expenditures—ads this organization paid for on its own. Candidates cannot legally coordinate with this spending, it never enters their accounts, and this site never adds it to contributions. Column totals include spending about candidates who are not current members; the rows show sitting members only.

Spent supporting

$295,000

Ads urging a vote for a candidate.

No sitting member on file.

Where these figures come from

Direct contributions are the Commission’s itemized committee-to-candidate records; independent expenditures come from the same filings and are reported separately. This organization files through C00075820 and C00404392—each link opens the Commission’s own page for that committee, so any figure here can be checked at the source. How we count, and what we refuse to claim, is on the methodology page.
