KEY FINDING:
- Mrvan (D-IN1) received $10,000 — tied as highest amount to any single recipient
- Reschenthaler (R-PA) also received $10,000 but does not represent NIPSCO territory
- Total Indiana federal recipients: Mrvan $10,000 + Pence $2,000 + Yakym $2,000 + Carson $1,000 = $15,000
- Mrvan amount ($10,000) equals the FEC maximum contribution from a PAC to a candidate per election cycle

NOTE ON LETTER CLAIM: The letter states Mrvan received "the largest single contribution NiSource made to 
any member of Congress in that cycle, per the OpenSecrets summary." 
CORRECTION: Mrvan and Reschenthaler (PA) both received $10,000 — tied for highest.
Letter should read: "one of the two largest contributions" or simply state the dollar amount without superlative.
This does not diminish the factual significance of the $10,000 contribution.
