L. Does the AB 571 contribution limit apply to county central committee candidates?
No. AB 571 imposes a contribution limit on city and county elective offices when a local jurisdiction has not already done so. Local jurisdictions are prohibited from placing contribution limits on county central committee candidates; therefore AB 571 is not applicable to these offices. M. An AB 571 candidate for city council would like to send out a request for contributions to their constituents. Do they need to include anything specific in the request? Yes. A candidate that is subject to AB 571 must have the following information in the solicitation: the name of the controlled committee soliciting contributions, and the specific office for which those contributions will be used. N. If an AB 571 candidate is the subject of a recall, is their committee to oppose the recall subject to contribution limits? No. There are no contribution limits for a committee controlled by a candidate that is the subject of a recall that is formed to oppose the recall.
