Individuals can contribute as much as $44,300 ($88,600 per couple) per calendar year to DCCC's general fund for use at DCCC's sole discretion. A multicandidate PAC can contribute as much as $15,000 per calendar year to DCCC’s general fund for use at DCCC’s sole discretion. All amounts in excess of this by individuals or PACs, up to the legal limits, will be for DCCC's headquarters account or recount and other legal proceedings account.
Contributions to the DSCC will first be allocated to the DSCC Legal Fund, up to $132,900. The next $44,300 will be for the DSCC’s general fund for use at the DSCC’s sole discretion. The remaining amount will be for the DSCC Headquarters Fund, up to the legal limit of $132,900.
Contributions or gifts to the DSCC are not tax deductible. Federal law requires us to use our best efforts to collect and report the name, mailing address, occupation and name of employer of individuals whose contributions exceed $200 in a calendar year.
