Dossier Legislative introduced 15-oct-2026
Bill introduced in Congress — not yet passed by either chamber, and not law.

To prohibit Joint Fundraising Committees that include federal candidates and Independent Expenditure-Only Political Committees from making disbursements on paid media.

Key claim: This House bill would ban joint fundraising committees that include both a federal candidate and a Super PAC from spending money on paid advertising.

Abstract

(HR10825 · 119th Congress) Latest action (2026-10-15): Referred to the House Committee on House Administration.

Why this matters

Joint fundraising committees linking federal candidates with Super PACs are a key mechanism by which large donors can give in a single transaction that benefits both a candidate account (capped) and an unlimited independent-expenditure vehicle. Restricting such JFCs from spending on paid media would narrow one practical pathway by which candidate–Super PAC coordination is alleged to occur. The proposal is at an early stage and has no immediate operative effect.
