Important piece by FEC Commissioner @DaraLind; Congress should take legislative action on this: Making a political donation shouldn’t be this dangerous wapo.st/3Vx2WGL

Excellent piece in @washingtonpost today by @FEC Commissioner @DaraLind, highlighting how FEC donor disclosure rules written in the 1970s put contributors at risk in the internet age and proposing a common-sense fix that will protect donor privacy: washingtonpost.com/opinions/…
Many don’t realize that a small political contribution can result in their home address being posted online. In my @washingtonpost op-ed, I explain why Congress must amend the law to protect privacy while preserving transparency. wapo.st/3IsX9z2 washingtonpost.com/opinions/…

In a display of unity across the political aisle, the Young Democrats of Connecticut and Connecticut Young Republicans have issued a joint statement offering prayers for Charlie Kirk and condemning political violence:
The @fec has published an interactive timeline for its 50th anniversary! It’s a useful way to look back at key moments in the agency’s history and the role of campaign finance in our democracy. Take a look!#FECat50

This is a thorough overview of our last meeting with Commissioner Dickerson. My favorite part: Lindenbaum said she hadn’t anticipated “blubbering and actual tears.” When the @FEC gets its quorum back, hopefully soon-ish, we will be ready.
The @FEC has entered a de facto shutdown.
It can’t enforce or regulate campaign finance laws until President Trump and the U.S. Senate act.
Here’s what you should know — and what Federal Election Commission commissioners told me today.

Today marks the first day I am unable to fly to DC for votes due to travel restrictions ahead of my due date.
It shouldn't be this way. Congress must pass my bipartisan resolution to allow Members who are new parents to vote remotely.

It has been a privilege to serve on the Federal Election Commission for the past four years. Today, I sent my resignation letter to the White House.
More to follow.
I am absolutely honored to be included on this list!
FEC Commissioner Dara Lindenbaum (@DaraLind) is one of The Hill's Changemakers of 2024.
Lindenbaum became the newest Democratic commissioner on the Federal Election Commission, and she knew she wanted to make a change. trib.al/4iTUHhD
ICYMI: I’m thrilled that this year’s unanimous @FEC legislative recommendations include a new rec to amend FECA to protect donor street names and street numbers. Having all 6 of us agree on this is a big deal. Let’s get it done! fec.gov/resources/cms-conten…
Today I released this statement, urging congress to amend FECA to eliminate the public disclosure of contributor street names and street numbers. I urge Congress to maintain the requirement that political committees collect and report the full mailing addresses to the @FEC, but only require that the we publish the contributors’ name, city, state, zip code, occupation, and employer. fec.gov/resources/cms-conten…
