Abolish Super PACs Act

This bill would change federal election law so that contributions to independent expenditure committees, often called Super PACs, are capped by the same limit that applies to other political committees. It defines an independent expenditure committee as a political committee that spends $5,000 or more in a calendar year on independent expenditures, or gives $5,000 or more in a year to other such committees. Separate accounts that a political committee sets up to make independent expenditures would also count as independent expenditure committees. The changes would take effect starting with the first calendar year after the bill becomes law.
