What is this $600,000 for and why does Reyes have to pay it?

Patricia M. Robles,
Both parties require that their members in "safe districts" raise tremendous amounts of campaign money and turn it over to the presiding entities like the RNC and the DNC. Those folks then pump that money into contested races.
If you fail to earn money and hand it over you won't get prime spots on good committees and you just might not get help if you get opponent next time around.
It's like paying dues for the better of the "club."
