FEC to host May 7 & 8 Membership-Labor Organization PAC Webinar (2024)

The Commission will hold an in-depth, online training event for membership and labor organizations and their political action committees (PACs) on Tuesday, May 7 and Wednesday, May 8. This live, interactive webinar is designed for those seeking an introduction to the basic provisions of the law as well as for those more experienced in the campaign finance laws relevant to PACs set up and administered by membership and labor organizations.

Attendees can choose one of two options. Option 1 includes three sessions: a Basics for Beginners session on Tuesday, which will introduce federal campaign finance laws, regulations, and reporting requirements to those new to federal committees; and a two-part Membership-Labor Organization PAC Operations workshop on Wednesday, which will go into much more detail on fundraising, making contributions, reporting scenarios, and the disclosure rules that apply to these types of PACs. Option 2, for those with more experience, includes just the two Wednesday afternoon sessions. This will be the only in-depth webinar geared specifically toward membership and labor organization PACs this year, so register today to reserve your spot.

Note: This webinar is tailored to PACs set up and administered by membership and labor organizations. Webinars for corporate PACs and trade association PACs will be held on April 16-17 and May 21-22, respectively. Click here for a full webinar schedule.
