Democratic Congressional Campaign CommitteeThe Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (commonly referred to as the "D triple C", or to DC insiders, the "D-Trip") is the United States Democratic Party Hill committee for the United States House of Representatives, working to elect Democrats to that body. They play a critical role in recruiting candidates, raising funds for Democratic candidates, and organizing races in districts that are expected to yield politically notable or close elections. Due to campaign-finance reform legislation coming into effect for the 2004 election cycle, the DCCC splits into two organizations 120 days before each Election Day. One organization can continue contact with the individual congressional campaigns, offering advice and suggestions to candidates and their staffs in each race. The other organization, which makes independent expenditures in congressional districts on behalf of the campaigns, is not allowed to coordinate activities with the campaigns. DCCC independent expenditures in the 2004 campaign tended to involve field programs for voter contact as well as radio and TV advertising. In the U.S. House election, 2004 the DCCC placed a heavy emphasis on online outreach to small donors, using weblogs and other Internet tools. The position of DCCC committee chair was assumed by the Hon. Rahm Emanuel after the death of the previous chair, Hon. Robert Matsui. Emanuel will lead the Democratic Party's effort to capture the majority in the House of Representatives for the 2006 election cycle. ==External links== *[http://www.democraticaction.org/ Official website] *[http://blog.dccc.org/ The DCCC's official blog, ''The Stakeholder''] *[http://makers.democraticaction.org/ Majority Makers, A Fundraising Service for Small Donors] Democratic Congressional Campaign CommitteeAll four hill committee articles had redundant and partly incorrect or misleading information. I have created a hill committee article and removed the material not specific to the individual committees from their respective articles. It's actually arguable whether we need separate articles at all, given how similar all four are in structure and function. User:Radicalsubversiv User talk:Radicalsubversiv :Yeah, but what's here now is basically like a stub. :User:Rlquall 21:22, 15 Oct 2004 (UTC) ::I don't mean to be rude, but what's your point? The longer article was inaccurate and duplicated the same information four different places.
