The report closes his contribution aggregate for the cycle at **$167,756,421.15**. ## Terms | Contribution date | Amount | Schedule A line | |---|---|---| | **2026-10-06** | $12,600,000.00 | `SA11AI` | | **2026-10-08** | $19,000,000.00 | `SA11AI` | | **2026-10-14** | $43,200,000.00 | `SA11AI` | | **Total** | **$74,800,000.00** | | | Item | Detail | |---|---| | Contributor | **MUSK, ELON** — occupation given as **Space Exploration Technologies**, state **TX** | | Recipient | [[America PAC]], FEC committee **C00879510** | | Line | `SA11AI` — itemised contribution from an individual, not an other-federal-receipt line | | Disclosed | **Form 3X** pre-general report, file **2038959**, e-file receipt date **2026-10-22** | | Cycle aggregate on the filing | **$167,756,421.15** | Each of the three contributions independently clears this site's **$1,000,000.00** individual-contribution threshold; the **$43,200,000.00** line of 2026-10-14 is the largest single itemised individual contribution this wiki has recorded in the 2026 cycle. ## Why it matters [[America PAC]] is the vehicle [[Elon Musk]] built for his own political spending rather than a committee he funds alongside others, so a contribution to it is a decision to spend, not a decision to donate. The pacing is the content: **$12.6 million, then $19.0 million, then $43.2 million**, each larger than the last, the final tranche landing on the closing date of the pre-general reporting period. The figure also sets the scale for the receipt side of this tranche. Across the whole of e-file receipt date 2026-10-22, **25 itemised individual contributions at or above $1,000,000.00** were disclosed, totalling **$151,945,347.00** — and these three rows are **49.2%** of that by themselves. ## Sources - FEC Form 3X pre-general report, file **2038959** — https://docquery.fec.gov/dcdev/posted/2038959.fec
