GUIDELINES FOR RAISING FUNDS

Please take a moment to read the following fundraising guidelines. While a house party is fun and easy, please be aware that fundraising for a United States House of Representatives race is regulated by the Federal Election Commission (FEC). We are happy that you wish to help raise money for Congressman David Wu, but we need your help in ensuring we meet with FEC regulations. You can do so by following a few simple rules. By hosting a party, you agree to follow these rules, listed below. If you have any questions, please call the campaign at 503-228-4598.


RULES:

In order for you to participate, you must adhere to the following:

DISCLAIMER LANGUAGE:

"Candidates are required to report the name, mailing address, employer and occupation for individuals with aggregate contributions over $200 in a calendar year. Contributions to federal candidates are not deductible for income tax purposes. Corporate checks are not acceptable for federal campaigns. Contributions are limited to $2,000 per individual for each election."

CHECKS & CREDIT CARDS:

Credit Cards: If you are asking individuals to contribute with their own personal credit card via the Wu website, you need not file the above-mentioned reports when the individuals contribute directly.
