The Federal Election Commission (FEC) is the independent regulatory agency charged with administering and enforcing the federal campaign finance law. The FEC has jurisdiction over the financing of campaigns for the U.S. House, the U.S. Senate, the Presidency and the Vice Presidency.

Federal campaign finance law covers three broad subjects, which are described in this brochure:

  • Public disclosure of funds raised and spent to influence federal elections;
  • Restrictions on contributions and expenditures made to influence federal elections; and
  • The public financing of Presidential campaigns.
