Bill overview
This bill, the Transparency in Campaign Text Message Act, aims to increase transparency in how political campaigns use text messages to solicit donations. It requires political committees to clearly display the full name of any hyperlinks included in text message requests for contributions. Specifically, the message must also identify the committee sending the text, and if it’s an authorized committee of a candidate, it must also identify the candidate. This ensures voters are fully informed about where they’re being directed when responding to campaign texts.
