Requires election ad groups to get at least half their money from local donors.
This bill would require groups that spend money on election ads for federal candidates to get at least half of that money from people living in the same state as the candidate. This aims to reduce the influence of out-of-state donors on elections for Congress. It would change how these groups raise and spend money.
Today, groups can spend money on election ads for federal candidates, and all of that money can come from outside the candidate's state. If this bill becomes law, groups spending money on election ads for federal candidates would need to make sure at least half of the funds for those ads come from people living in the same state as the candidate.
