Federal Election Commission Increases Campaign Contribution Limits
Highlights

Based on its analysis, the FEC may make adjustments to account for any inflation
Such adjustments have resulted in increases for 2021-2022 for certain individual contributions and also for certain Political Action Committee (non-multicandidate) contributions
The Federal Election Commission (FEC) conducts a detailed analysis of inflation and cost-of-living increases on a biennial basis for purposes of evaluating federal campaign contribution limits. This analysis is required by the Federal Campaign Election Act (FECA) which authorizes the FEC to make adjustments in odd-numbered years to account for inflation.
