AI Summary

This bill, the Stop Super PAC-Candidate Coordination Act, seeks to amend the Federal Election Campaign Act to clarify that coordinated expenditures between candidates and outside groups like super PACs are considered contributions to the candidate, subject to the same limits and reporting requirements as direct contributions. The bill also clarifies the ban on federal candidates and officeholders soliciting funds for super PACs and other political organizations that accept unlimited contributions. These changes are intended to prevent candidates from circumventing campaign finance laws by coordinating with outside groups.
