In 2022, lawmakers briefly put a $30,000 limit on how much candidates could receive from political committees. But just six months later, the Legislature quietly reversed those limits in the state budget—without a public hearing—opening the door for unlimited money to flow directly to candidates, including from out-of-state billionaires and national party committees.
This last-minute change stripped away an important guardrail meant to prevent a single donor from having outsized influence in our elections. We saw the direct consequences of this in 2024: the new loophole allowed a single political organization to funnel tens of millions of dollars into the governor's race. One PAC accounted for 70% of Ayotte's campaign funds, sending over $14 million in untraceable contributions. National groups on both sides followed suit, flooding New Hampshire with unlimited and undisclosed cash and stacking the deck against candidates who don't have access to deep-pocketed donors.
Join us on December 17th at 9AM at the State House as we raise our voices (literally!) and call for a democracy powered by voters, not unlimited cash.
P.S. Join us afterward at the ODA office for hot coco and refreshments!
