Prohibiting Private Funds in Federal Elections

This act aims to prevent states from accepting money or donations from private entities for the administration of federal elections. This means that all election-related activities, such as voter education and registration, will be funded solely by public money, intended to ensure greater independence of the electoral process. The only exception is the acceptance of donations for polling place locations.
