Independent-expenditure research
Spending by committees independent of a candidate, reported to the FEC as supporting or opposing that candidate. An independent expenditure is not a contribution to the candidate and does not imply coordination, control, or any legislative outcome. Support/oppose is the spender's reported classification.
