Senate Bill 411 Summary

• Reduces individual campaign contribution limits to candidate committees by 50%: from $6,800 to $3,400 for statewide elective office, $2,000 to $1,000 for state senators, and $1,000 to $500 for state representatives and local offices.

• Reduces contribution limits for non-statewide candidates: from $6,800 to $3,400 for candidates in districts with over 250,000 population, and establishes tiered reductions for smaller districts.

• Removes references to section 46 from contribution limitation sections and repeals section 46 of the Michigan Campaign Finance Act entirely.

• Maintains existing multiplier-based contribution limits for independent committees and political party committees (10 times or 20 times individual limits depending on committee type).

• Preserves exemptions for family contributions and bundled contributions to statewide candidates while applying the same reduced contribution limits to most other contributors.
