Direct answer
The DNC (Democratic) and RNC (Republican) national party committees — plus congressional campaign committees like the DCCC and NRCC — file with the FEC as party committees. Track their receipts, disbursements, and cash on hand on public F3X reports alongside candidate fundraising.
Party committees on the FEC
- National committees — DNC, RNC, and related national accounts
- Congressional committees — party arms focused on House and Senate races
- Leadership PACs — often filed by members of Congress; separate from their candidate committee
Party money is separate from individual candidate committees — reporters and political watchers should track both when covering national elections.
