Donor Protection: Ending Unwanted Recurring Political Contributions.

This law aims to protect citizens from unknowingly signing up for repeated political campaign contributions. It mandates that political organizations must obtain explicit, affirmative consent for recurring donations, meaning pre-checked boxes are no longer sufficient. Furthermore, organizations must make it easy to cancel these recurring payments and provide clear receipts for every transaction.
Key points
Stops automatic, recurring political donations: requires active, affirmative consent (like checking an unchecked box) for any repeated payment arrangement.
Political groups must immediately cancel recurring payments upon request and provide clear cancellation instructions in every communication.
