“Ron DeSantis’ presidential campaign is rebooting a pair of linked fundraising vehicles that have sat dormant since he launched his campaign, as his fledging operation faces a difficult early stretch,” NBC News reports.
“One of the vehicles is a joint fundraising committee created around the campaign launch in late May but has been inactive so far, campaign finance records show. The other is a leadership PAC which is linked to the joint fundraising committee, as is DeSantis’ campaign committee — an increasingly common campaign finance setup.”
“There are strict rules detailing how campaigns have to pay for their own costs, but the joint fundraising committee-plus-PAC setup can split things like fundraising costs with the campaigns, and it’s a vehicle for large-dollar donors to put more money behind campaign-adjacent efforts.”
