Kodi Mabuku Osagwirizana ndi Ena Ndani?

Pansi pa lamulo la zandalama la boma, komiti ya ndale zadziko yopanda ogwirizanitsidwa iri komiti yandale imene modziŵa imalandira zopereka kapena kupanga ndalama zoposa $000 m'chaka ndi imene siiloledwa ndi wobatizidwa kapena chipani cha ndale zadziko. Mokulira, PC yopanda ogwirizanitsidwa siikhazikitsidwa, kusungidwa, kapena kulamuliridwa ndi bungwe la antchito, gulu lantchito, kapena gulu la anthu ena lirilonse limene limafunsira zopereka kwa ziŵalo zake. Ufulu umenewu uli mkhalidwe wowonekera wa PCC ndi kulinganiza malamulo a zopereka omwe amagwira ntchito kwa iyo.

Ma PAC osagwirizanitsidwa nthaŵi zina amatchulidwanso kukhala "Apacs Odziimira Okha" kapena "Opempha PaCs . Iwo ayenera kulembetsa ndi FEC itawoloka chitseko cha $000 ndipo ayenera kupanga mafaelo odziŵira mokhazikika malipoti awo ndi mawirikiti. Mosiyana ndi Super PaCs, imene iri ndi kulinganiza kwa komiti yapadera ya zowonongedwa zokha, ma PAC omwe sagwirizana ndi boma angapange zopereka mwachindunji kwa ofunsira, ogonjera ku malire a zopereka. Zimenezi zimawapangitsa kukhala chiŵiya chosinthasinthasintha kaamba ka pangano la ndale, ngakhale kuti amawaikanso ku nyumba yopanganso nyumba yopanga zinthu.

Zitsanzo zofala za APAC zosakhala ogwirizanitsidwa zimaphatikizapo PPAC zopangidwa ndi ochirikiza nkhani, PALICs (nthaŵi zina zotchedwa "Gloarship PACs" pamene akhazikitsidwa ndi wobatizidwa koma osavomerezedwa ndi mkupiti wa wobatizidwayo), ndi makomiti a ndale zadziko ozikidwa pa kampani imodzi kapena mgwirizano.

Ngakhale chopereka chochepera kuchokera ku dziko lachilendo sichili chalamulo ndipo chiyenera kuchotsedwa mwamsanga.

Ma PAC osalumikizidwa afunikira kufunsa opereka onse kaamba ka unzika wawo kapena malo achikhalire alamulo ndi kusunga zolembedwa zosonyeza kuti masitepe abwino atengedwa kupeŵa zopereka zachilendo. FEC yapereka zikalata zambiri zosungitsa zotsutsana ndi APAC zimene zinalephera kutsegulira mokwanira opereka, kuphatikizapo zochitika zimene maiko akunja anathandizira kupyolera mwa mamediaseti kapena kugwiritsira ntchito maadiresi a U.S.

Mabungwe a Boma la Federal

Anthu kapena mabungwe amene akukambirana kapena kuchita pangano la boma logwirizana ndi boma amaletsedwa kupereka zopereka ku komiti iliyonse ya ndale, kuphatikizapo ma PC. Lamulo limeneli limagwira ntchito kwa omanga, akuluakulu ake, ndi AC ngati womangayo ali ndi mmodzi. Zopereka za makampani a boma ziyenera kukanidwa ndi kubwezedwa kwa wopereka ngati walandira kale.

Kumene Ena Anapeza Mfundo Zina

Mabuku ena oletsa zopereka zopangidwa m'dzina la munthu wina (inde, "zopereka za m'madoko"), zopereka za ana (ngakhale kuti lamulo laletsa, linapangitsa kutsalira kochepera), ndipo zopereka za ku juga kapena machitachita a juga zimayenderana m'mayiko ena. Ma PAC osagwirizana ndi njira zotsimikizira kuti operekawo agwirizana ndi malamulo onse.

Malire a Makomiti Ena a Zandale

Ma PAC osagwirizanitsidwa angalandirenso zopereka kuchokera ku makomiti ena a ndale zadziko olembetsedwa, kuphatikizapo ma PAC, ogwirizanitsidwa ndi APAC, makomiti a ofunsira, ndi makomiti a zipani. Chopereka chirichonse cha m'komiti imodzi chimagonjera ku malamulo ake:

  • Zina zopanda zolumikizidwa: A PAC yosalumikizidwa angapereke $5,000 pachaka ku . Mpata umenewu umagwira ntchito mosiyana ndi malire a zopereka za munthu aliyense.

  • Kaunti ndi makomiti a chipani chakwanuko: Zimenezi zingapereke ndalama zokwana $5,000 pachaka ku PC yosakhala yogwirizanitsidwa, ngakhale kuti lamulo la boma lingaike ziletso zowonjezereka.
  • Makomiti a chipani cha dziko: Palibe malire apadera pa zopereka kuchokera ku makomiti a chipani cha chipani kufikira ku MaPAC osagwirizana, ngakhale kuti zopereka zoterozo nzosoŵa ndipo ziyenera kusimbidwa.

Malamulo apakati a boma ameneŵa alinganizidwira kuletsa kulephera kwa kuchepetsa kwa zopereka za munthu mmodzi kupyolera m'makomiti ogwirizanitsa. Mwachitsanzo, wopereka sangakhale ndi $50,000 ku PC yogwirizana ndi cholinga cha kukhala ndi ndalamazo zoperekera ku PC yopanda ogwirizana, kusiyapo ngati PACI imachita ndandanda ya kugamula modziimira ndipo choperekacho chimakhala pakati pa $5,000 ya chaka ndi chaka pakati pa makomiti.

Malire Omwe Amakhala Pansi pa Malire a Kupuma

Imodzi ya magwero ofala kwambiri a chisokonezo m'lamulo la ndawala ya zachuma ndiyo kusiyana pakati pa zopereka ndi ndalama zaumwini. IPAC yosagwirizanitsidwa ingapange zowonongedwa zaufulu zosalekeza kuchirikiza kapena kutsutsana ndi boma, malinga ngati zowonongedwazo ziridi zodziimira ndipo zosagwirizana ndi wobatizidwa aliyense kapena chipani. Kusiyana kumeneku kunatsimikiziridwa ndi chigamulo cha Supreme Court mu [FLD:0] Citazens United v. FEC (2020) ndi zigamulo za khoti lapansi zotsatira.

Komabe, malire a zopereka ofotokozedwa m’nkhani ino amagwira ntchito ku . M'mawu ena, wopereka sangakhale ndi ndalama zokwanira $50,000 pa zimene angalandire kwa opereka. M'makalata ena, wopereka sangakhale wopereŵera ndalama zambiri ku pulogalamu ya pa PACI yosagwirizana ndi anthu. Chopereka cha woperekacho chimachotsedwa pa $5,000 pachaka, ngakhale ngati PC akufuna kugwiritsira ntchito ndalamazo paokha osati pa zopereka zachindunji.

Mfundo iyi njofunika kwambiri kuti timvere: PACI imene siikulumikizidwa, imene imaloŵetsamo zopereka zachindunji ndi zowonongedwa zaumwini, iyenera kuyang'ana mosamalitsa malisiti ake ndipo siiyenera kulandira zopereka zoposa malire a lamulo, mosasamala kanthu za mmene ndalama zidzawonongedwera. Mlingo wa zopereka ndi chiletso cha pambali pa lisiti, osati choletsa kugwiritsa ntchito.

Kupereka Malipoti ndi Kulinganiza

Ma PAC osalumikizidwa afunikira kulembetsa ndi FEC ndi mafaelo odziŵikitsa nthaŵi ndi nthaŵi maripoti akuti tsatanetsatane wa zopereka zonse zolandiridwa ndi zowonongedwa zopangidwa. Malipotiwa amalembedwa pa FEC For 3X ndipo amaperekedwa pa maziko a kanayi kapena mwezi, kudalira pa chisankho cha PC. Malipotiwo ayenera kuphatikizapo dzina, keyala, ntchito, ndi bwana aliyense amene amathandizira $200 m'chaka chimodzi, limodzinso ndi deti ndi unyinji wa chopereka chirichonse.

Kampani imaposa kungosunga zolembedwa zosavuta. Osunga chuma apatsidwa udindo wotsimikizira kuti zopereka zonse n’zololeka mwalamulo, zochokera bwino, ndiponso zoikidwiratu. Ntchito imeneyi imaphatikizapo kuchititsa khama lokwanira lofuna kutsimikizira kuti nzika zili ndi ufulu, kuyang'anira ngati zoletsa za boma, ndi kutsimikizira kuti zopereka za makomiti ena zili m'mipambo yapakati. FEC imapatsa malangizo atsatanetsatane pa webusaiti yake, ndipo APAC ambiri amasunga uphungu walamulo kapena aphungu omvera kuti ayendetse zofunika zopereka lipoti.

Zopereka ndi Zopereka

Ngati pa C patalandira chopereka choposa malire alamulo, nchochokera ku gwero loletsedwa, kapena kuti sichololedwa, PAC iyenera kubwezeretsa chopereka kwa woperekayo mkati mwa ndandanda ya nthaŵi yoikidwa. Nthaŵi zina, PC ingapereke chopereka chogwirizana ndi anthu aŵiri (monga ngati okwatirana) kwa wopereka woyenera. Malamulo a FEC olamulira maderesi ndi zopereka zanthaŵi yake ali ndi tsatanetsatane, ndipo kachitidwe kowongoletsera kanthaŵi yake kamafunika kuti apeŵe kusungidwa.

Maliwongo a Kuswa

FEC ili ndi ulamuliro waukulu wofufuza kuswa malire ndi ziletso. Chilango chingaphatikizepo ndalama za boma, malamulo, ndi kuswa zopereka zosakhala za lamulo. M'nkhani zophatikizapo kuswa mwadala kapena kuvomereza mwadala zopereka zoletsedwa, FEC ingalunjikitse nkhaniyo ku Dipatimenti ya Chilungamo kaamba ka mlandu. Zilango zaupandu zingaphatikizepo kulipira ndi kuikidwa m’ndende kwa zaka zisanu.

FEC imafalitsanso ntchito za lamulo pa webusaiti yake, kupereka mbiri yapoyera ya kuswa ndi kupereka zilango. Kwa anthu osagwirizana ndi ma PAC, kulandira mwachisawawa chimodzi chopereka chochokera ku magwero oletsedwa kungatulutse zabwino kwambiri, makamaka ngati PC ilephera kusunga njira zokwanira zoperekera. Kupenda ndi kuphunzitsidwa kwa antchito a PAC nthaŵi zonse kumavomerezedwa mwamphamvu.

Malangizo Othandiza kwa Opereka ndi Mapazi

Kwa opereka aliyense payekha, mfungulo ya kuchoka njachindunji: Mukhoza kupereka $5,000 pakalendala iriyonse kwa pampaka iriyonse yosakhala yolankhulana ndi , ndipo mungapereke ku ma PAC ambiri osagwirizanitsidwa monga momwe mufunira mkati mwa malire a komiti iriyonse.

Kuwonjezerapo, kufunsirana ndi loya wa kampani ya kampani ya kampani kungathandize kupeŵa zolakwa zokwera mtengo.

Ma PAC osagwirizanitsidwa ayeneranso kudziŵa za malire a mlingo wa zopereka za boma ngati aloŵa m'ntchito ya boma kapena m'chosankha cha kumaloko. Pamene kuli kwakuti lamulo la boma limalamulira zopereka za chisankho cha boma, maboma ambiri amaika malire awo a zopereka ndi ziletso pa AC amene amagawana m'mafuko a boma ndi a kumaloko. PaC wosagwirizanitsidwa ndi malamulo ambiri a boma ndi a kumaloko, amene angasiyane kwambiri ndi malire a boma.

Kukula kwa Posachedwapa ndi Mkhalidwe wa Mtsogolo

Malo alamulo a PALIC osakhala ogwirizanitsidwa adakali amphamvu. Malingaliro aposachedwapa a FEC adafotokoza nkhani zonga kugwiritsira ntchito kubisa kwa zopereka (mwachibadwa zovomerezedwa ndi malamulo a kuŵerengera), kulandira zopereka kupyolera m'mapulatifomu a magetsi, ndi kuperekedwa kwa zopereka kuchokera ku LLC ndi mayanjano. FEC yaperekanso chitsogozo pa kugwirizana pakati pa malire a zopereka ndi makomiti opereka pamodzi, zimene zingasokoneze kuperekedwa kwa zopereka ku ma progalamu ambiri a PCs.

Malamulo okhazikitsa malamulo okhazikitsa lamulo la Federal EFomment Campaice Act imayambitsidwa pafupifupi m'makhoma alionse, ngakhale kuti kusintha kwakukulu kwakhala kosoŵa. Malingaliro ena angadzutse kapena kuchotsa malire a $5,000 pa zopereka ku ma PC osakhala ogwirizanitsidwa, pamene kuli kwakuti ena adzaika ziletso zowonjezereka pa ndalama zakuda ndi kuvumbula. Ofufuza ayenera kuyang'anitsitsa zochitika zimenezi, monga momwe kusintha kwa lamulo kukakhala ndi ziyambukiro zazikulu za ku kulinganiza ndi maprogramu ogwirizana ndi kuvomereza.
