About the NRCC:

The National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) is a political committee devoted to increasing the 203-member Republican Conference in the U.S. House of Representatives.

Origins:

The NRCC's origins date back to 1866, when the Republican caucuses of the House and Senate formed a "Congressional Committee." Today, the NRCC is organized under Section 527 of the Internal Revenue Code. It supports the election of Republicans to the House through direct financial contributions to candidates and Republican Party organizations; technical and research assistance to Republican candidates and Party organizations; voter registration, education and turnout programs; and other Party-building activities.

The NRCC is governed by its chairman, U.S. Rep. Tom Cole (OK-04), and an executive committee composed of Republican members of the U.S. House of Representatives.

The Chairman is elected by the House Republican Conference after each congressional election. Republican Leader John Boehner and the seven other elected leaders of the Republican Conference of the House of Representatives serve as ex-officio members of the NRCC's executive committee.

The day-to-day operations of the NRCC are directed by Executive Director Pete Kirkham, who oversees a staff of professionals with expertise in campaign strategy development, planning and management, research, communications, fund raising, administration, and legal compliance.
