The Federal Election Commission has received five new registrations for political committees that will operate as joint fundraising committees, allowing a donor to easily write one check for a large amount. However, the check may not exceed the combined contribution limit for all the participating candidates/committees.  

Registering at the FEC were Kentucky Republican Leadership Fund , which is a joint fundraising effort by the Republican National Committee and the Republican Party of Kentucky.

The Colorado North Carolina Victory Fund  is a joint fundraising effort for Hagan for Senate (the campaign committee of Sen. Kay Hagan, D-N.C.) and Udall for Colorado (the campaign committee of Sen. Mark Udall, D-Colo.).  

The Reed Begich Victory Fund  is a joint fundraising effort for the Reed Committee (the campaign committee of Sen. Jack Reed, D-R.I.) and Alaskans for Begich 2014 (the campaign committee of Sen. Mark Begich, D-Alaska).  

The Kentucky Louisiana Victory Fund  is a joint fundraising effort for Alison for Kentucky (the campaign committee of Alison Lundergan Grimes, D-Ky.) and Friends of Mary Landrieu (the campaign committee of Sen. Mary Landrieu, D-La.).
