Donor Protection: Affirmative Consent for Recurring Contributions and Easy Cancellation

New rules aim to protect individuals making political contributions by requiring their explicit consent for recurring payments. Citizens will gain greater control over their donations, as organizations will need to clearly disclose terms and cancellation methods for recurring payments. This means an end to automatic, unwanted charges if you do not actively agree to them.
Key points
Explicit consent is required for recurring political contributions; pre-checked boxes are not enough.
Organizations must provide full information on recurring contribution terms and cancellation methods with every communication.
Recurring contributions must be immediately canceled upon the donor's request.
