What this bill would do

This bill, known as the "Campaign Transparency Act," aims to amend the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971. It focuses on changing how political committees report the identity of people making contributions for Federal elections. Specifically, the bill seeks to eliminate the current thresholds that require identification for contributions exceeding $200. This change would apply to various subparagraphs within the existing law. The amendments would take effect for reports filed on or after the date the Act is enacted.
