Which Soros-funded groups disclosed donations to 2024 Democratic campaigns and PACs?
Executive summary
George Soros and related donors routed large, disclosed sums into 2024 Democratic committees largely through Democracy PAC (about $60 million reported to that super PAC) and affiliated vehicles such as Democracy PAC II and family-linked nonprofits that funneled money to other PACs and groups (Democracy PAC II had about $1.1 million in receipts for 2024 and carried large 2022 carryover) [1] [2]. Open-source trackers (OpenSecrets) list individual and organizational recipient records but do not provide a single consolidated list in the supplied results [3] [4].
1. Who disclosed direct Soros funding to 2024 Democratic campaigns and PACs — headline names
Federal filings and press reports show the Fund for Policy Reform (a nonprofit tied to George Soros and the Open Society network) as the primary origin of a $60 million transfer to Democracy PAC, the Soros-funded super PAC that in turn distributed millions to other Democratic committees and advocacy PACs in 2024 [1] [2]. Democracy PAC II is the second named Soros-linked super PAC; it reported roughly $1.1 million in 2024 receipts while carrying a large balance from 2022 donations that included a $125 million earlier infusion [1]. FactCheck and Bloomberg identify Democracy PAC and Democracy PAC II as the principal disclosed conduits [1] [2].
2. What those PACs gave and where the money flowed
Public reporting shows Democracy PAC used its resources to send funds to a range of Democratic-aligned groups and other super PACs: Bloomberg and FactCheck note that Democracy PAC spread tens of millions across dozen-plus groups, including major Democratic committees such as House Majority PAC and Senate Majority PAC, and to civic and racial-demographic outreach PACs [5] [1]. The Daily Mail summary reported Democracy PAC made transfers — for example, $4 million to both House Majority PAC and Senate Majority PAC and multi-million grants to groups like Planned Parenthood Votes and Black PAC in early 2024 [5]. OpenSecrets is named as the database that compiles FEC-released contributions and recipient records [3] [4].
3. Nonprofit intermediaries and the Open Society link
Reporting frames the Fund for Policy Reform and Open Society entities as the origin points for much of the disclosed giving. FactCheck and Bloomberg directly tie the Fund for Policy Reform — one of the Open Society family — to the $60 million funding of Democracy PAC and describe the Open Society network as Soros-founded and chaired [1] [2]. Congressional materials cited in the supplied list also note that Soros’ nonprofit donations sometimes pass through multiple nonprofits before being spent by political-operating entities [6].
4. Local and state targets — beyond national super PAC transfers
A number of news items in the supplied sources document Soros-linked money also flowed to state and local efforts: Democracy PAC and Soros-backed vehicles funded groups that ran targeted organizing and ad buys in battleground states and paid local PACs and canvassing operations. The Texas reporting cites the Texas Majority PAC receiving $6.45 million from Soros and related spending across county Democratic PACs and ground-game vendors [7]. The Washington Examiner similarly reported Democracy PAC doled out nearly $60 million primarily to other Democratic committees and local media-related recipients that ran targeted state-level ads [8].
5. What public trackers like OpenSecrets show — and their limits
OpenSecrets maintains donor and recipient lookup tools that reflect FEC filings; the supplied OpenSecrets items describe methodology and list Soros Fund Management recipient pages but do not present a single, comprehensive list of every Soros-funded group in these search results [3] [4] [9]. OpenSecrets notes its data come from FEC filings of $200+ donations and warns organizations themselves may not directly report outside spending [4] [9]. Available sources do not mention a single consolidated list compiled here; interested readers must consult FEC/OpenSecrets filings for line-by-line disclosure [3] [4].
6. Competing narratives and what the sources disagree about
Mainstream outlets (Bloomberg, FactCheck) report the Fund for Policy Reform as the explicit donor of a $60 million transfer to Democracy PAC and document downstream grants [1] [2]. Conservative outlets and hyperpartisan pieces in the sample (Daily Mail, Washington Examiner, Texas Voice, Informed American) amplify the political significance and frame the spending as a decisive “war chest” or local influence operation; those items emphasize the scale and targeted use of funds but sometimes adopt partisan language or editorial framing [5] [8] [7] [10]. Congressional documents referenced show scrutiny of the nonprofit-to-PAC flows and note complex routing of nonprofit funds [6]. Sources disagree in tone and implications but largely agree on the disclosed dollar figures and the named PAC recipients [1] [5] [2] [6].
7. Bottom line and how to verify the full roster
The clearest, disclosed entries in the supplied reporting name Democracy PAC, Democracy PAC II, and the Fund for Policy Reform/Open Society family as central to Soros-linked donations into the 2024 Democratic ecosystem, plus downstream grants to House/Senate Majority PACs and several advocacy PACs and state-level groups [1] [2] [5] [7]. For a complete, verifiable list of every PAC and candidate that received Soros-linked money in 2024, consult the FEC filings and OpenSecrets donor-recipient pages cited above; available sources in this packet do not provide a single consolidated recipient list [3] [4] [9].
