Political party committee

In the United States, political party committees are organizations, officially affiliated with a political party and registered with the Federal Elections Commission (FEC), which raise and spend money for political campaigning. They are not to be confused with political action committees, which are formally independent of political parties and subject to different rules.

Though their own internal rules differ, the two major political parties (Democrats and Republicans) have essentially parallel sets of committees. (Third parties have varied organizational structures, although several do have national committees officially recognized by the FEC.)
