2024-03045: Party Segregated Accounts

Summary

The Commission is considering whether to initiate a rulemaking in response to two petitions that asked the Commission to issue new rules and to revise its existing rules regarding the segregated accounts of national party committees. To assist in its consideration, the Commission invites comments on the issues raised in the petitions and this document. The Commission particularly requests comments from national party committees with experience administering party segregated accounts. The Commission has made no final decisions regarding the issues discussed in this document and may ultimately decide not to initiate a rulemaking in response to either petition. Further information is provided in the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION that follows.
