VOICE OF TEACHERS FOR EDUC/CMTE ON POL EDUC OF NY STATE UNTD TEACHERS (VOTE/COPE) OF NYSUT
Finance signals
Neutral "worth a look" observations computed from this committee's disclosed FEC totals — not accusations. A signal is not evidence of wrongdoing; each notes its caveats and links the filing.
Of $8,827,655 spent in 2026, 0.1% went directly to candidates or independent expenditures. Context, not a concern — the rest can be bundling, operations, or fundraising, which topline totals don't separate. The scam-PAC screen needs itemized Schedule B spending (being ingested).
A low direct-contribution share is common and legitimate — PACs also bundle contributions, run independent expenditures, and carry overhead, none of which show in this figure. Separating those (the scam-PAC screen) needs itemized Schedule B spending, which is being ingested. Not a finding.
