The NRSC was founded in 1916 as the Republican SenatorialCampaignCommittee. It was reorganized in 1948, and renamed the National Republican SenatorialCommittee. Recent Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist was an NRSC chair, and many feel he used it to make the connections that he used to become majority leader when Trent Lott resigned. The NRSC helps elect Republican incumbents and challengers primarily through fundraising. Other services include promotion using media and communications, as well as research and strategy planning. The NRSC generally avoids supporting Republicans in primaries against other party members, though the 2006 Rhode Island Senate primary between Lincoln Chafee and mayor of Cranston Steve Laffey is a notable exception. The NRSC sends out mass mailings to addresses in states where Republican senators are likely to be voted out.
