What this bill would do
H.R. 10566 is known as the Sunlight on SuperPACs Act of 2026. The bill amends the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971 to add disclosure requirements for certain campaign communications. Its stated purpose is to empower voters by giving them actionable information about the top funders of SuperPAC advertisements. The text notes that existing disclosure loopholes have allowed SuperPACs to fund deceptive ads without revealing who pays for them until after elections. To fix this, the bill requires certain independent expenditure communications to include a Top Three Funders list. These new rules apply to communications made on or after January 1, 2027.
