Related: About this forumRules for campaign spending.
Does anyone know what sort of rules apply to campaign spending? (Also... what is the name of the agency that oversees this? I think I know, but can't recall it.)
It looks like the Vatican trip was paid for by the campaign, but I can't figure out how it could be called campaign related.

of the FEC guide has information I think is relevant, but not being an attorney, it's a guess on my part, and no more.
