Description

The National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) is a "political committee" established
by Republican Members of the United States Senate to help Republican candidates develop
the campaign resources they need for 2006 so we can maintain and grow our majority in the
United States Senate. In accordance to law, it is registered as a National Party Committee with
the Federal Election Commission.

Upon its inception in 1916, the NRSC was originally founded as the Republican Senatorial
Campaign Committee, following the ratification of the 17th Amendment to the Constitution
which provided for the direct election of Senators. The Committee was reorganized in 1948
and renamed the National Republican Senatorial Committee.

The Committee was formed with the primary goal of supporting Republican candidates to the
United States Senate by offering current and prospective candidates support in a number of
ways. The NRSC provides invaluable assistance such as budget planning and compliance
guidelines for Federal Election Commission law, fundraising, communications tools and
messaging, and a research and strategy center.

The Chair of the NRSC is elected every two years by the Republican Senate caucus. Members
of the caucus are appointed by the Senate Republican Conference Committee.
