Oakland Public Ethics Commission to Consider Adjusting Contribution Limits
The Public Ethics Commission will consider annual adjustments to the contribution limits at their regular meeting next week.
Commission staff will present an updated list of the campaign contribution limits and expenditure ceiling amounts, as adjusted according to the increase in the Consumer Price Index as required by the Oakland Campaign Finance Reform Act.
The limitations on contributions from persons to candidates who adopt the voluntary expenditure ceiling will increase to $900 per election.
If approved, the adjusted limits will be in effect for the 2020 elections.
