Summary of Assessment Findings
The information below is based on FEC reports through March 31, 2026. Any PAC financial activity after that date is not included in this analysis.
- Save American Education Fund (SAEF) is a Super PAC registered with the FEC on May 1, 2024.
- Across two election cycles (2023–2026), SAEF has raised $1,222,944 and disbursed over $1,018,393. It has filed zero independent expenditures in either cycle.
- The overwhelming majority of disbursements in the 2023-2024 cycle went to fundraising (80.3%) and operations (14.3%) with $25,000 going for program (5.4%).
- SAEF’s spending is dominated by a small group of recurring vendors which account for approximately 80% of all disbursements. Concentrated spending is characteristic of “scam PAC operations.”
- The PAC’s fundraising base is primarily small-dollar recurring donors giving $5–$25 per month through ActBlue.
- No individual associated with the SAEF is identified on the website – no leadership, no staff, no board.
- SAEF’s website claims it is “dedicated to supporting candidates & causes who defend American students’ freedom to learn” and “connects education research to the realities of school board races.” Despite raising over $1.2 million, they have run minimal ads for school board elections.
- There is evidence that the PAC engaged in deceptive advertising.
- The address of the PAC is the same UPS Store as the address of the Treasurer/Custodian of Records. It is not a functioning office.
- The PAC does not appear to have any Twitter/X, Instagram or TikTok presence to verify its activities.
- On April 13, 2026, Steve Schear of Scambusters emailed Joshua Myles, the Treasurer of Save American Education Fund, and a partner in Capitol Compliance Associates, at josh@capitolcompliance.com with questions about the PAC’s operation. To date there has been no response.
