Campaign Finance Transparency Act

Introduced·5/11/26

Campaign Finance Transparency Act amends federal election laws to enhance contribution reporting and acceptance practices.

The Campaign Finance Transparency Act modifies the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971 to improve transparency in campaign finance. It mandates that political committees forward contributions to the treasurer within 10 days, along with the contributor's name, address, and date of receipt. The bill removes the $200 threshold for reporting contributions, requiring disclosure of all contributions regardless of amount.
