New Limits and Transparency Rules for Presidential Inaugural Funding.
This law establishes strict limits and disclosure requirements for committees organizing presidential inaugurations to enhance transparency. It prevents corporations, unions, and foreign entities from funding these events, ensuring that large individual donations are quickly made public.
