> We are specifically a 527 that supports/opposes more than one Federal candidate, is not a segregated fund or party committee, is not a Lobbyist/Registrant PAC, and is not a Leadership PAC. (On FEC form 1 this is box (f) under section 5)
For more context on this, the FEC instructions for filling out Form 1 contains a bit more information on the different types of 527s: https://www.fec.gov/resources/cms-content/documents/fecfrm1i.pdf https://www.fec.gov/resources/cms-content/documents/fecfrm1i...
They also have this table explaining the contribution limits that apply to each, our form of 527 is called out in a footnote to the table: https://www.fec.gov/help-candidates-and-committees/candidate-taking-receipts/contribution-limits/ https://www.fec.gov/help-candidates-and-committees/candidate...
> I guess my question is, if you're raising money not-for-a-campaign but on issues, how are you then going to use that money for explicit advocacy for a candidate's election, where limits actually kick in.
