In a landmark episode for the Facts About PACs community, hosts Micaela Isler, Adam Belmar, and David Schild sit down with Federal Election Commission Chair Shana Broussard.
Chair Broussard is leading the FEC through its longest quorum crisis in the agency's 50-year history — now past 295 days without the four commissioners needed to issue advisory opinions, move enforcement matters forward, or finalize regulations. She joins the show to explain what that means in practical terms for PAC professionals, what the agency can still do for the regulated community, and why she's operating as if quorum could be restored tomorrow.
The conversation also tackles some of the biggest issues facing the PAC community right now — from Chair Broussard's passionate case for indexing PAC contribution limits to inflation after 50 years stuck at $5,000, to her candid assessment of National Republican Senatorial Committee v. FEC, which she calls the most consequential case before the commission since Citizens United.
Don't miss this rare opportunity to hear directly from the nation's top campaign finance regulator at a pivotal moment for money in politics.
