4,780% of the North Carolina median

Median household income, North Carolina $72,388

Thomas R Tillis, reported assets (low end) $3,461,031

The income bar shows the median as a share of the larger of the two figures, with a 3px minimum width so it stays visible. The assets bar has its own scale, from $1 at the left to $20 million at the right, and follows the low end of the range. It fills completely when the top of the range is over $20 million. Its color, and the color of the percentage above, runs from green on the left to red on the right.

Reported assets are what the disclosure form lists, in value bands, before debts and not counting a primary home. The median is one year's household income. They measure different things.

Context only. The income figure never moves the pond.

Funding — not the pond

FEC money track · 2024–2026 cycle · never part of the pond

Did they take money from PACs that funded both Democrats and Republicans? Money never moves the pond.

Campaign — they cashed it

$733,039 TAKE (dual-party PAC)

Took at least $1,000 from PACs that fund both parties.

Context. Not the pond. Taking the check is not a flip. Flipping after the check, and staying quiet, is.

Own it — Dual-party PAC

The office types a why in their own words after opening the mailbox link. It does not move the pond.

Largest dual-party PACs on this file.

Deloitte Political Action Committee$10,000
GILEAD SCIENCES, INC.$10,000
VIATRIS INC.$10,000

Traditional PAC contributions to candidate committees only. A dual-party PAC gave at least $1,000 to both parties. AIPAC in this table is committee C00797670. Legal, disclosed, hard-capped. Super PACs and dark money are not in this number. Taking this money is common. The amount is the story. HippoCricket doesn't put this in the pond. FEC bulk committee-to-candidate (24K/24Z), cycles 2024+2026. Dual-party = PAC gave ≥$1,000 to Dems and ≥$1,000 to Republicans. AIPAC = C00797670 only. Download the PAC table.
