Related bills not counted

  • Disclosing Foreign Influence in Lobbying Act

    Senate ·S 856

    Strengthens disclosure of foreign-government direction over registered lobbyists; does not require donor disclosure for $10,000+ election spending.

  • Disclosing Foreign Influence in Lobbying Act

    House ·HR 1883

    House companion of S 856, with the same lobbying-disclosure mechanism, not an election-spending donor disclosure bill.

  • End Dark Money Act

    House ·HR 2498

    Named for the problem this reform targets, but a tax-code bill (referred to Ways and Means): it repeals the rider that bars the IRS from writing rules on the political activity of tax-exempt nonprofits. That would clear the way for future IRS disclosure rules rather than itself requiring anyone to disclose donors, so it does not enact the reform's standard of naming the donors behind $10,000+ in election spending.

What it does

The DISCLOSE Act would require any organization spending more than $10,000 in a federal election to publicly identify donors who contributed $10,000 or more, close the routing loopholes that let money pass through 501(c)(4) and 501(c)(6) groups anonymously, and require shell companies engaged in election spending to disclose their true owners.
