Hillary for America, 8:50 p.m. | Along with a campaign finance report showing $47.6 million in donations, Hillary Clinton's campaign also released the Democratic front-runner's bundlers, individuals who raised at least $100,000 for her. She is the first candidate to do so, though the Associated Press reports that Jeb Bush and Scott Walker plan to follow suit in the fall. The company whose employees gave the most money to Clinton: The law firm of Morgan & Morgan, whose attorneys include former Representative Mike Espy, a Mississippi Democrat who served as secretary of Agriculture under Bill Clinton. The firm's employees gave $257,566 to the Clinton campaign. She got more than $97,000 from employees of Yale University, where she and her husband graduated from law school. Despite her rhetoric against Wall Street, Clinton still got significant sums from financial firms. Employees of Goldman Sachs Group Inc. ponied up at least $49,000, and JPMorgan Chase & Co. more than $61,000.
