Don’t forget your disclaimers!

Remember that any public communication made by a political committee, including communications that do not expressly advocate the election or defeat of a candidate or solicit a contribution, must display the proper “paid for by” disclaimer. This includes (but is not limited to) billboards, yard signs and media advertising.

However, not all campaign materials require disclaimers. A disclaimer is not required if it can’t be conveniently printed (for example, on pens, bumper stickers and similar small items) or when its display is not practicable (such as on clothing, water towers and skywriting).

Please visit our Advertising and disclaimers webpage for more information.
