Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Federal officeholders are the only option listed that falls under the regulations of the Federal Election Commission (FEC), which prohibits unions and corporations from making direct political contributions in federal elections. However, they can contribute to political action committees (PACs) and independent expenditure committees (IECs) to support candidates.
