# Building America
**Building America** is an independent-expenditure-only committee — a super PAC — registered in
California since October 2024 (FEC ID **C00890392**). It matters to this wiki as the middle link in a
short, legible funding chain.
| Direction | Counterparty | Amount | Line | Date | File |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| In | [[Rapid Resist Action]] | $1,600,000.00 | `SA11AI` | 2026-08-27 | 2022502 |
| Out | [[Principled Patriots PAC]] | $250,000.00 | `SA17` | 2026-09-23 | 2022527 |
Its third-quarter report itemises exactly one receipt — the $1.6 million above — so for that period its
funding was **entirely** from a single nonprofit. The $250,000 it sent onward was 100% of everything
[[Principled Patriots PAC]] has ever received, and that committee spent it promoting long-shot
candidates against Republicans in nineteen races.
The FEC's register names **Howie Stanger** as its treasurer, who is also treasurer of
[[Abdul El-Sayed]]'s Senate campaign committee in Michigan. A compliance treasurer signs for many
unrelated clients, and nothing here establishes coordination between the committees — see the fuller
note on [[Principled Patriots PAC]].
## What this page still needs
Its own expenditures. The third-quarter report carries ten disbursement rows that have not been read
here, and the committee has filed a pre-general report that has not been read either.
