Pass the DISCLOSE Act to Name the Donors Behind Election Ads

Outside spending has grown more than twelvefold since 2008, much of it through groups that hide their donors, and the FEC cannot act.

The Letter

Subject Support the DISCLOSE Act (S.3991 / H.R.7802)

Outside groups spent $4.22 billion on the 2024 federal elections, more than 12 times what they spent in 2008, the last election before Citizens United. Voters often cannot tell who paid. From January 2025 through March 2026, the four main congressional super PACs took $119 million from allied dark money groups that never name their donors.

The Federal Election Commission has had no quorum since May 1, 2025. It cannot investigate or fine anyone during these midterms.

In Citizens United, eight justices upheld disclosure rules because they let voters "give proper weight to different speakers and messages." The DISCLOSE Act builds on that. It requires groups spending more than $10,000 on elections to name donors who give $10,000 or more.

Please support the DISCLOSE Act (S.3991 in the Senate, H.R.7802 in the House) and push for a vote on it this Congress.

I'm calling about the DISCLOSE Act, S.3991 in the Senate and H.R.7802 in the House.
Outside groups spent $4.22 billion on the 2024 federal elections, more than 12 times what they spent in 2008. The four main congressional super PACs have taken $119 million from dark money groups that hide their donors.
The FEC has had no quorum since May 2025, so no one is enforcing the rules during the midterms.
Please support the DISCLOSE Act and push for a vote. It requires groups spending over $10,000 on elections to name donors who give $10,000 or more.
I'm a constituent and I vote.
