1. Expenditure Limitation for House of
Representatives
Both the national and state party
committees have an expenditure
limitation for each general election held
to fill a seat in the House of
Representatives. The formula used to
calculate the expenditure limitation in a
state with more than one congressional
district multiplies the base figure of
$10,000 by the price index (3.961),
rounding to the nearest $100. Based
upon this formula, the expenditure
limitation for 2006 House elections in
those states is $39,600. The formula
used to calculate the expenditure
limitation in a state with only one
congressional district multiplies the
base figure of $20,000 by the price index
(3.961), rounding to the nearest $100.
Based upon this formula, the
expenditure limitation for 2006 House
elections in these states is $79,200.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971,
2 U.S.C. 431 et seq., as amended by the
Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act of
2002, Public Law 107–155, 116 Stat. 81
(March 27, 2002), coordinated party
expenditure limits (2 U.S.C.
441a(d)(3)(A) and (B)) are adjusted
annually by the consumer price index.
See 2 U.S.C. 441a(c)(1). The
Commission is publishing this notice to
announce the limits for 2006.
Coordinated Party Expenditure Limits
for 2006
Under 2 U.S.C. 441a(c), the
Commission must adjust the
expenditure limitations established by 2
U.S.C. 441a(d) (the limits on
expenditures by national party
committees, State party committees, or
their subordinate committees in
connection with the general election
campaign of candidates for Federal
office) annually to account for inflation.
This expenditure limitation is increased
by the percent difference between the
price index, as certified to the
Commission by the Secretary of Labor,
for the 12 months preceding the
beginning of the calendar year and the
price index for the base period (calendar
year 1974).

limitation considers not only the price
index but also the voting age population
(‘‘VAP’’) of the state. The expenditure
limitation is the greater of: the base
figure ($20,000) multiplied by the price
index (which totals $79,200); or $0.02
multiplied by the VAP of the state,
multiplied by the price index. Amounts
are rounded to the nearest $100. The

FEDERAL ELECTION COMMISSION
[Notice 2006-3]
Price Index Increases for Coordinated Party Expenditure
Limitations
AGENCY: Federal Election Commission.
ACTION: Notice of coordinated party expenditure limit increases.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: As mandated by provisions of the Bipartisan Campaign Reform
Act of 2002 (``BCRA''), the Federal Election Commission (``the
Commission'') is adjusting the coordinated party expenditure limits set
forth in the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971, as amended, to
account for increases in the consumer price index.
Additional details appear in the supplemental information that
follows.
DATES: Effective Date: The effective date for the limits is January 1,
2006.

Division, 999 E Street, NW., Washington, DC 20463; Telephone: (202)

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the Federal Election Campaign Act of
1971, 2 U.S.C. 431 et seq., as amended by the Bipartisan Campaign
Reform Act of 2002, Public Law 107-155, 116 Stat. 81 (March 27, 2002),
coordinated party expenditure limits (2 U.S.C. 441a(d)(3)(A) and (B))
are adjusted annually by the consumer price index. See 2 U.S.C.
441a(c)(1). The Commission is publishing this notice to announce the
limits for 2006.
Coordinated Party Expenditure Limits for 2006
Under 2 U.S.C. 441a(c), the Commission must adjust the expenditure
limitations established by 2 U.S.C. 441a(d) (the limits on expenditures
by national party committees, State party committees, or their
subordinate committees in connection with the general election campaign
of candidates for Federal office) annually to account for inflation.
This expenditure limitation is increased by the percent difference
between the price index, as certified to the Commission by the
Secretary of Labor, for the 12 months preceding the beginning of the
calendar year and the price index for the base period (calendar year
1974).
1. Expenditure Limitation for House of Representatives
Both the national and state party committees have an expenditure
limitation for each general election held to fill a seat in the House
of Representatives. The formula used to calculate the expenditure
limitation in a state with more than one congressional district
multiplies the base figure of $10,000 by the price index (3.961),
rounding to the nearest $100. Based upon this formula, the expenditure
limitation for 2006 House elections in those states is $39,600. The
formula used to calculate the expenditure limitation in a state with
only one congressional district multiplies the base figure of $20,000
by the price index (3.961), rounding to the nearest $100. Based upon
this formula, the expenditure limitation for 2006 House elections in
these states is $79,200.
2. Expenditure Limitation for Senate
Both the national and state party committees have an expenditure
limitation for a general election held to fill a seat in the Senate.
The formula used to calculate the Senate expenditure
[[Page 14219]]
limitation considers not only the price index but also the voting age
population (``VAP'') of the state. The expenditure limitation is the
greater of: the base figure ($20,000) multiplied by the price index
(which totals $79,200); or $0.02 multiplied by the VAP of the state,
multiplied by the price index. Amounts are rounded to the nearest $100.

expenditure limitations for Senate elections.
