Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise, chapter 29, p. 866. Written by Hans A. von Spakovsky.

Raise contribution limits and index reporting to inflation

The document says “shouldWho acts: CongressHow: legislationp. 866 in the PDF
What the document says

“Raise contribution limits and index reporting requirements to inflation.”

Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise, p. 866

The chapter argues that limits hamstring candidates and parties while serving no practical anti-corruption purpose, and that reporting thresholds not indexed to inflation clog the public record and the agency's processes with small-dollar information of little use. It separately criticizes limits on party committees coordinating with their own candidates.

What the document actually says

“Raise contribution limits and index reporting requirements to inflation.”

Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise, p. 866
That sentence, in plain words

Let people give more. Move the reporting limits with inflation.

What this is about

There are caps on what you can give a campaign. The book says they are too low. It also says small gifts should not need reporting.

No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken. See what the tracker does not yet cover.

How to read this page

The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page number against the book itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary, not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the quotation rather than replacing it.
