Every election cycle, I have to try to re-remember the labyrinth of political bribery in the United States.

Is there a table anyway outlining the different types of political organizations and their respective limits? Things like:  
[ul]  
[li]How much money can you donate to one, and how often?[/li][li]Must donors be revealed? And their donation amounts?[/li][li]Can the organization engage in lobbying?[/li][li]Can the organization collaborate with candidates or their campaigns?[/li][li]Does the organization have to identify itself in its messaging/outreach materials?[/li][li]Is there any agency responsible for oversight of this organization?[/li][/ul]
