Here are the 50 political committees that received the most money from contributions during May, according to the Missouri Ethics Commission.
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.
Data about contributions during a month are often incomplete and updated at the end of the quarter.
