Bill Summary
DISCLOSE Act of 2018 Democracy Is Strengthened by Casting Light On Spending in Elections Act of 2018
AI Summary
This bill, the DISCLOSE Act of 2018 or the Democracy Is Strengthened by Casting Light On Spending in Elections Act of 2018, would amend the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971 to provide for additional disclosure requirements for corporations, labor organizations, Super PACs, and other entities regarding their political spending. Specifically, it would expand the ban on foreign national contributions and expenditures to apply to certain domestic corporations that are foreign-controlled, foreign-influenced, or foreign-owned. It would also require covered organizations that make over $10,000 in campaign-related disbursements in an election cycle to file disclosure statements with information about their donors and spending. The bill aims to increase transparency and accountability around money in US elections.
