Here are the 50 political committees that received the most money from contributions during April, according to the Wisconsin Campaign Finance Information System.
Donations made to political groups or candidates must be disclosed under state law for greater transparency in elections. While Congress created the Federal Election Commission to oversee federal elections in 1974, each state is left to regulate its local elections.
