# Protecting Alaska Fishermen FEC committee **C00962100**, treasurer **Jud Brown**, registered at **611 Pennsylvania Ave SE #192, Washington DC 20003**. An independent-expenditure vehicle spending against [[Dan Sullivan]] in [[AK-Sen-2026]] — that is, from the Democratic direction. ## What is on the record | Item | Detail | |---|---| | FEC committee ID | **C00962100** | | Treasurer | **Jud Brown** | | Address | 611 Pennsylvania Ave SE #192, Washington, DC 20003 | | First notice recorded here | **Form 24, F24N, file 2016253**, received **2026-10-02** | | That notice | **$1,416,276.83**, 6 Schedule E lines, all **oppose [[Dan Sullivan]]**, election code G2026 | | Expenditure dates | 2026-10-01 and 2026-10-08 — the second is **forward-dated** | | Vendors | MVAR Media LLC $1,229,316.01 · The Pivot Group, Inc $186,960.82 | ## Why it matters **The aggregate equals the notice, so this is the committee's first buy.** The Schedule E rows carry a running aggregate of **$1,416,276.83** against a line sum of **$1,416,276.83** — they match exactly, which is the signal that every dollar here is new money. A state-branded vehicle appearing five weeks out with $1.4M and no spending history. **The state branding points the other way.** The name invokes an Alaska constituency, the address is a Capitol Hill mail drop in Washington DC, and the money opposes the Republican incumbent. Compare the two Republican-side vehicles that filed the same day — [[Cornhusker Majority]] and [[The Maine Standard]] — which carry in-state addresses and oppose Democrats. The template at [[State-Branded Super PAC Template]] is in use on both sides of the map. **Its vendors are Democratic-side buyers.** The Pivot Group, Inc also appears on House Majority PAC's Form 24 notice of the same receipt date (file 2016509, $195,825.00). > [!note] Open questions > - Who funds it.
