Coordinated party expenditure limits

As detailed in the tables on this page, the 2025 coordinated party expenditure limits are now available, along with archived limits from past years.

  • For Senate nominees, the 2025 limits range from $127,200 to $3,946,100, depending on each state’s voting age population (VAP);
  • For House nominees in states with only one representative, the limit is $127,200; and
  • For House nominees in all other states, the limit is $63,600.

These limits reflect the 2025 VAP and the difference in the consumer price index between the preceding year and base year 1974 (6.36203), and apply to general elections held during 2025, including special elections. For additional information on coordinated party expenditures, please consult the Campaign Guide for Political Party Committees.
