Inaugural Fund Integrity Act (Inaugural Committee Finance Regulation)
Current understanding
HR535 (Inaugural Fund Integrity Act) would apply campaign-finance-style rules to presidential inaugural committees: banning corporate and foreign-national donations, capping individual contributions, prohibiting conversion of inaugural funds to personal use, and requiring FEC disclosure of both donations received and disbursements made. The bill extends the foreign-national contribution ban and donor-disclosure framework — already applied to campaign committees — into the inaugural-committee context, which currently operates under looser transparency and source rules. Status: introduced.
