Kept separate from reviewed identities

Registrant names still under review

These are names shown in retained filings, not canonical firm profiles. Similar-looking words are never merged automatically.

PACESETTER STRATEGIES FORMERLY KNOWN AS K. BLACK STRATEGIES LLC

2 retained filings for AARP during 2026-Q1 through 2026-Q2.

Why no profile is available: The current retained filings do not establish an outside-income or in-house-expense amount basis, so no firm profile is published.

How firm records work

Identity, amounts, sources, and limits

A registrant files for a client. Outside firms use the income field; organizations filing on their own behalf use the expense field. Gov Influence keeps those measures separate.

Review the identity and calculation method

Profiles require a stable official registrant ID, exact reviewed name continuity, a retained filing with client, quarter, issue, amount-basis, and source context, a unique slug, and explicit publication approval. Similar names are not evidence of a shared identity.

Counts start with the existing canonical filing set after exact client-name, amendment, and duplicate rules. Numeric income totals add only reported and reported-zero fields. Below-threshold, unreported, and absent values are retained and excluded from numeric sums.
