While state law governs many aspects of an election process, the federal government is responsible for passing campaign finance laws. The Federal Election Campaign Act establishes that the primary law of the United States is to regulate and control the political campaign and fundraising. The Federal Election Commission (FEC), which administers the federal campaign finance laws, enforces campaign contribution limits for individuals and groups, keeps an eye on campaign finance data, and supervises public funding which is going to be used in presidential elections.
