FECA Moves from Title 2 to Title 52 of the US Code

August 29, 2014

As of September 1, 2014, federal campaign finance laws (currently found in 2 U.S.C. §431 et seq) will be consolidated with other laws governing voting and elections in the new title 52 of the United States Code. The FEC will compile and distribute a new version of our "Orange Book" to reflect the changes and will announce its availability in the Record, through our Tips for Treasurers and on the Federal Campaign Finance Laws page of our website. In the meantime, see this Record article for more information and a link to the new title 52 paired with a conversion table.
