On the record
Who runs it
The FEC makes every committee name a treasurer, who signs its reports, and a custodian of its records. It does not make PACs list their officers or board.
Who runs the company behind it
PACs report a treasurer to the FEC, not a board. This PAC is connected to Novartis; these are the company's board members and top officers.7
