Understanding Political Committees

PACs (Political Action Committees) can raise funds from individuals and donate directly to candidates, subject to contribution limits ($5,000 per candidate per election). They represent corporations, labor unions, trade associations, or ideological groups.

Super PACs can raise unlimited funds from individuals, corporations, and unions, but cannot contribute directly to or coordinate with candidates. They must disclose their donors to the FEC and can only make independent expenditures.

Party Committees are the official fundraising arms of the Democratic and Republican parties at the national, state, and local levels. They can contribute directly to candidates and coordinate spending on their behalf.

Joint Fundraising Committees allow multiple candidates and party committees to raise money together, splitting contributions among participants according to a pre-set allocation formula.
