The PAC, which includes individuals who previously worked on Sen. Bernie Sanders's 2016 presidential campaign, states they are working to elect "reform-minded prosecutors at the county and municipal level who are committed to using the powers of their office to fight structural racism and defend our communities from abuse by state power."
The Real Justice PAC filed its statement of organization with the Federal Election Commission on Feb. 2, 2017, more than a year before King publicly spoke of the efforts.
The PAC's first backer was Cari Tuna, the wife of Dustin Moskovitz, a cofounder of Facebook alongside Mark Zuckerberg. Tuna cut a $653,480 check to the committee's independent expenditure account on Feb. 3, 2017, by far the most that has been given to the PAC for its activities, filings show.
The Real Justice PAC has taken in $400,000 in contributions in addition to the six-figures from Tuna for its independent expenditures, or communications used to advocate for or against political candidates.
The generous donation to the Real Justice PAC appears to be the only one made by Tuna this election cycle after flooding Democratic committees and PACs with funds throughout 2016.
Tuna disbursed $2.5 million each to the League of Conservation Voters Victory Fund, an environmental organization, and For Our Future, a labor union PAC, in 2016.
Tuna also gave $1.25 million to MoveOn.org Political Action and $416,100 to the Hillary Victory Fund, Clinton's joint fundraising committee, along with tens of thousands in other contributions to the likes of the DCCC and DNC.
Moskovitz, who left Facebook in 2008 to found Asana, an application to help manage team projects and tasks, made nearly $30 million in total contributions during the 2016 cycle in an attempt to defeat Donald Trump.
