FEC to host May 21-22 Trade Association PAC Webinar (2024)

The Commission will hold an in-depth, online training event for trade associationsand their political action committees (PACs)on Tuesday, May 21 and Wednesday, May 22. This live, interactive webinar is designed for those seeking an introduction to the basic provisions of the law as well as for those more experienced in the campaign finance laws relevant to PACs set up and administered by trade associations.

Attendees can choose one of two options. Option 1 includes three sessions: a Basics for Beginners workshop on Tuesday, which will introduce federal campaign finance laws, regulations, and reporting requirements to those new to federal committees; and a two-part Trade Association PAC Operations workshop on Wednesday, which will go into much more detail on fundraising, making contributions, reporting scenarios, and the disclosure rules that apply to these types of PACs. Option 2, for those with more experience, includes just the two Wednesday afternoon sessions. This will be the only in-depth webinar geared specifically toward trade association PACs this year, so register today to reserve your spot.
