Summary
To limit the amount of campaign contributions that can be "bundled", a practice that side-steps New York State individual campaign contribution limits for political campaigns by having one person act as an intermediary gathering contributions from other persons and then delivering them all to a candidate so that the intermediary receives credit for obtaining the funds without violating the individual legal limit, to $100,000. In addition, this measure would require full reporting and disclosure of the practice of "bundling" campaign contributions.
Title
Establishes no conduit or intermediary may contribute, loan or guarantee in excess of one thousand dollars in connection with the nomination or election of any one candidate for state or local office within the state of New York in any election cycle.
