Butker’s Political PAC Has Little Cash and a Gambling-Site Redirect

Harrison Butker’s Upright PAC, formed in September 2024, has raised little money since the start of 2025 and has not donated to political campaigns since it was established. The Federal Election Commission still lists the committee as active, while its website, UprightPac.org, now sends visitors to a Thai gambling site. Butker’s X account has also shown the redirect.

The PAC raised $37,921 and spent $32,735 between October and December 2024. It made no candidate contributions during the 2024 election cycle, and 91% of its spending paid Frontline Strategies, a Republican campaign-advisory company, to solicit donations.

From January 2025 through September 30, 2026, the PAC raised $6,777.25 and spent $11,220.85. Its spending included fees for WinRed, credit card debt, travel and political consulting. It reported $741.47 in cash on hand on September 30. An Open Secrets spokesman said the few thousand dollars raised were insufficient to support candidates.

The PAC’s original pitch invoked Butker’s Christian values and called for mobilizing Christians at the ballot box. Its launch coincided with his campaigning for Republican Sen. Josh Hawley, who won re-election in November 2024. Whether donations can still be made through the PAC is unclear.

The PAC’s uncertain status comes as Butker’s place on the Chiefs is also in question after seven missed field goals. Coach Andy Reid said he would assess the kicker’s future; the Chiefs have signed Justin Tucker to their practice squad.

Butker PAC Raised Money but Gave Nothing to Candidates

Harrison Butker’s Upright PAC promoted a political fight over Christian values, but its record shows no donations to candidates since it was formed in September 2024. By September 30, 2026, it had just $741.47 in cash, and its website was redirecting visitors to a Thai gambling site.

The PAC raised $37,921 in its first three months, but spent $32,735. During the 2024 election cycle, it gave nothing to candidates, while 91% of its spending went to fundraising fees for Republican consulting firm Frontline Strategies. From January 2025 through September 2026, it raised $6,777.25 and spent $11,220.85, including on WinRed fees, travel, debt and political consulting.

That gap between political rhetoric and candidate support is central to the story: the PAC called for Christians to mobilize at the ballot box, yet its reported spending did not put money behind campaigns. An Open Secrets spokesman said the sums raised were too small to support candidates.

The Federal Election Commission still considers the PAC active, but whether people can donate through it is unclear. Its launch coincided with Butker’s campaigning for Republican Sen. Josh Hawley, who won re-election in November 2024. The current redirect and low cash balance leave the committee’s political operation looking decidedly diminished.

Butker’s PAC Still Listed Active, but Its Website Redirects

Harrison Butker’s Upright PAC set out to mobilize Christians around values it said were under attack. The committee remains listed as active, but its website now redirects to a Thai gambling site, and it had only $741.47 in cash on September 30, 2026.

The financial record is modest: the PAC raised $37,921 and spent $32,735 in its first three months, then brought in $6,777.25 and spent $11,220.85 from January 2025 through September 2026. It has not donated to candidates since its 2024 formation. In the 2024 election cycle, 91% of its spending went to fundraising fees for Republican consulting firm Frontline Strategies.

Those figures show a small operation that has not translated its stated political purpose into candidate contributions. They do not change the fact that the Federal Election Commission still lists the PAC as active. An Open Secrets spokesman said the money raised was insufficient to support candidates, and it is unclear whether donations can still be made.

The PAC began as Butker campaigned for Republican Sen. Josh Hawley, who won re-election in November 2024. Now its limited resources and broken-looking web presence raise practical questions about whether the committee can continue its stated work. Butker’s football future is also under review after seven missed field goals, with coach Andy Reid saying he would assess the situation.
