in 47 U.S.C. 151, 154(i), 301, 303(r), and
332 of the Communications Act, as
amended.
Total Annual Burden: 30,812 hours.
Total Annual Cost: No cost.
Needs and Uses: The Commission is
seeking Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) approval for an extension
of this information collection and will
submit this information collection after
this 60-day comment period.
The Commission’s Third Report and
Order in PS Docket No. 07–114 adopted
a rule providing that new CMRS
network providers meeting the
definition of covered CMRS providers in
Section 9.10 and deploying new standalone networks must meet the handsetbased location accuracy standard in
delivering emergency calls for Enhanced
911 service. The rule requires that new
stand-alone CMRS providers must
satisfy the handset-based location
accuracy standard at either a countybased or Public Safety Answering Point
(PSAP)-based geographic level.
Additionally, in accordance with the
pre-existing requirements for CMRS
providers using handset-based location
technologies, new stand-alone CMRS
providers are permitted to exclude up to
15 percent of the counties or PSAP areas
they serve due to heavy forestation that
limits handset-based technology
accuracy in those counties or areas but
are required to file a an initial list of the
specific counties or portions of counties
where they are utilizing their respective
exclusions.
A. Updated Exclusion Reports. Under
this information collection and pursuant
to current rule section 9.10(h) new
stand-alone CMRS providers and
existing CMRS providers that have filed
initial exclusion reports are required to
file reports informing the Commission
of any changes to their exclusion lists
within thirty days of discovering such
changes. The permitted exclusions
properly but narrowly account for the
known technical limitations of either
the handset-based or network-based
location accuracy technologies chosen
by a CMRS provider, while ensuring
that the public safety community and
the public at large are sufficiently
informed of these limitations.
B. Confidence and Uncertainty Data.
Under this information collection and
pursuant to current rule section 9.10(h),
all CMRS providers and other entities
responsible for transporting confidence
and uncertainty data between the
wireless carriers and PSAPs, including
LECs, CLECs, owners of E911 networks,
and emergency service providers
(collectively, System Service Providers
(SSPs)) must continue to provide
confidence and uncertainty data of

wireless 911 calls to Public Safety
Answering Points (PSAP) on a per call
basis upon a PSAP’s request. New
stand-alone wireless carriers also incur
this obligation. The transport of the
confidence and uncertainty data is
needed to ensure the delivery of
accurate location information with E911
service.

Price Index Adjustments for
Expenditure Limitations and Lobbyist
Bundling Disclosure Threshold
Federal Election Commission.
Notice of adjustments to
expenditure limitations and lobbyist
bundling disclosure threshold.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
As mandated by provisions of
the Federal Election Campaign Act (‘‘the
Act’’), the Federal Election Commission
(‘‘the Commission’’) is adjusting certain
expenditure limitations and the lobbyist
bundling disclosure threshold set forth
in the Act, to index the amounts for
inflation. Additional details appear in
the supplemental information that
follows.
SUMMARY:
The new limitations apply
beginning on January 1, 2024.
ADDRESSES: 1050 First Street NE,
Washington, DC 20463.
DATES:
Ms.
Elizabeth S. Kurland, Information
Division, (202) 694–1100 or (800) 424–

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
Federal Election Campaign Act, 52
U.S.C. 30101–45, coordinated party
expenditure limits (52 U.S.C.
30116(d)(2)–(3)) and the disclosure
threshold for contributions bundled by
lobbyists (52 U.S.C. 30104(i)(3)(A)) are
adjusted periodically to reflect changes
in the consumer price index. See 52
U.S.C. 30104(i)(3)(B), 30116(c); 11 CFR
109.32(a)(2), (b)(3), 110.17(a), (f). The
Commission is publishing this notice to
announce the adjusted limits and
disclosure threshold for 2024.

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). 52 U.S.C. 30116(c)(1)(B)(i),
(2)(B)(i).
1. Expenditure Limitation for House of
Representatives in States With More
Than One Congressional District
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 in states with more than
one congressional district. See 52 U.S.C.
30116(d)(3)(B). This limitation also
applies to the District of Columbia and
territories that elect individuals to the
office of Delegate or Resident
Commissioner.1 Id. The formula used to
calculate the expenditure limitation in
such states and territories multiplies the
base figure of $10,000 by the difference
in the price index (6.17976), rounding to
the nearest $100. See 52 U.S.C.
30116(c)(1)(B), (d)(3)(B); 11 CFR
109.32(b), 110.17. Based upon this
formula, the expenditure limitation for
2024 general elections for House
candidates in these states, districts, and
territories is $61,800.
2. Expenditure Limitation for Senate
and for House of Representatives in
States With Only One Congressional
District
Coordinated Party Expenditure Limits
for 2024
Both the national and state party
committees have an expenditure
limitation for a general election held to
fill a seat in the Senate or in the House
of Representatives in states with only
one congressional district. See 52 U.S.C.
30116(d)(3)(A). The formula used to
calculate this expenditure limitation
considers not only the price index but
also the voting age population (‘‘VAP’’)
of the state. Id. The VAP figures used to
calculate the expenditure limitations
were certified by the U.S. Census
Bureau. The VAP of each state is also
published annually in the Federal
Register by the U.S. Department of
Commerce. 11 CFR 110.18. The general
election expenditure limitation is the

3. Expenditure Limitation for President
The national party committees have
an expenditure limitation for their
general election nominee for President.
52 U.S.C. 30116(d)(2). The formula used
to calculate the Presidential expenditure
limitation considers not only the price
index but also the total VAP of the
United States. Id. The VAP figure used
to calculate the expenditure limitation
was certified by the U.S. Census Bureau.
The VAP of the United States is also
published annually in the Federal
Register by the U.S. Department of
Commerce. 11 CFR 110.18. The formula
used to calculate this expenditure
limitation is $0.02 multiplied by the
total VAP of the United States
(262,083,034), multiplied by the
difference in the price index, 6.17976.
See 52 U.S.C. 30116(c)(1)(B), (d)(2); 11
CFR 109.32(a)(2), 110.17. Amounts are
rounded to the nearest $100. 52 U.S.C.
30116(c)(1)(B)(iii); 11 CFR 109.32(a)(2),
110.17(c). Based upon this formula, the
expenditure limitation for 2024
Presidential nominees is $32,392,200.

For the convenience of the readers,
the Commission is also republishing the

certain political party committees giving

party committees for the 2023–2024
election cycle:

Lobbyist Bundling Disclosure
Threshold for 2024
FEDERAL HOUSING FINANCE
AGENCY
The Act requires certain political
committees to disclose contributions
bundled by lobbyists/registrants and
lobbyist/registrant political action
committees once the contributions
exceed a specified threshold amount. 52
U.S.C. 30104(i)(1), (i)(3)(A). The
Commission must adjust this threshold
amount annually to account for
inflation. 52 U.S.C. 30104(i)(3)(B). The
disclosure threshold is increased by
multiplying the $15,000 statutory
disclosure threshold by 1.51143, the
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 2006). See 52
U.S.C. 30104(i)(3), 30116(c)(1)(B); 11
CFR 104.22(g). The resulting amount is
rounded to the nearest multiple of $100.
52 U.S.C. 30104(i)(3)(B),
30116(c)(1)(B)(iii); 11 CFR 104.22(g)(4).
Based upon this formula ($15,000 ×
1.51143), the lobbyist bundling
disclosure threshold for calendar year
2024 is $22,700.

limitation for each general election held to fill a seat in the House
of Representatives in states with more than one congressional district.
See 52 U.S.C. 30116(d)(3)(B). This limitation also applies to the
District of Columbia and territories that elect individuals to the
office of Delegate or Resident Commissioner.\1\ Id. The formula used to
calculate the expenditure limitation in such states and territories
multiplies the base figure of $10,000 by the difference in the price
index (6.17976), rounding to the nearest $100. See 52 U.S.C.
30116(c)(1)(B), (d)(3)(B); 11 CFR 109.32(b), 110.17. Based upon this
formula, the expenditure limitation for 2024 general elections for
House candidates in these states, districts, and territories is
$61,800.

\1\ Currently, these are Puerto Rico, American Samoa, Guam, the
United States Virgin Islands and the Northern Mariana Islands. See

2. Expenditure Limitation for Senate and for House of Representatives
in States With Only One Congressional District
Both the national and state party committees have an expenditure
limitation for a general election held to fill a seat in the Senate or
in the House of Representatives in states with only one congressional
district. See 52 U.S.C. 30116(d)(3)(A). The formula used to calculate
this expenditure limitation considers not only the price index but also
the voting age population (``VAP'') of the state. Id. The VAP figures
used to calculate the expenditure limitations were certified by the
U.S. Census Bureau. The VAP of each state is also published annually in
the Federal Register by the U.S. Department of Commerce. 11 CFR 110.18.
The general election expenditure limitation is the
[[Page 5535]]
greater of: The base figure ($20,000) multiplied by the difference in
the price index, 6.17976 (which totals $123,600); or $0.02 multiplied
by the VAP of the state, multiplied by 6.17976. See 52 U.S.C.
30116(c)(1)(B), (d)(3)(A); 11 CFR 109.32(b), 110.17. Amounts are
rounded to the nearest $100. 52 U.S.C. 30116(c)(1)(B)(iii); 11 CFR
109.32(b)(3), 110.17(c). The chart below provides the state-by-state
breakdown of the 2024 general election expenditure limitations for
Senate elections. The expenditure limitation for 2024 House elections
in states with only one congressional district \2\ is $123,600.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\2\ Currently, these states are: Alaska, Delaware, North Dakota,
South Dakota, Vermont and Wyoming. See https://www.house.gov/representatives/.
\3\ This expenditure limit does not apply to the District of
Columbia, Puerto Rico, American Samoa, Guam, the United States
Virgin Islands, and the Northern Mariana Islands because those
jurisdictions do not elect Senators. See 52 U.S.C. 30116(d)(3)(A);
11 CFR 109.32(b)(2)(i).

3. Expenditure Limitation for President
The national party committees have an expenditure limitation for
their general election nominee for President. 52 U.S.C. 30116(d)(2).
The formula used to calculate the Presidential expenditure limitation
considers not only the price index but also the total VAP of the United
States. Id. The VAP figure used to calculate the expenditure limitation
was certified by the U.S. Census Bureau. The VAP of the United States
is also published annually in the Federal Register by the U.S.
Department of Commerce. 11 CFR 110.18. The formula used to calculate
this expenditure limitation is $0.02 multiplied by the total VAP of the
United States (262,083,034), multiplied by the difference in the price
index, 6.17976. See 52 U.S.C. 30116(c)(1)(B), (d)(2); 11 CFR
109.32(a)(2), 110.17. Amounts are rounded to the nearest $100. 52
U.S.C. 30116(c)(1)(B)(iii); 11 CFR 109.32(a)(2), 110.17(c). Based upon
this formula, the expenditure limitation for 2024 Presidential nominees
is $32,392,200.
Limitations on Contributions by Individuals, Non-Multicandidate
Committees and Certain Political Party Committees Giving to U.S. Senate
Candidates for the 2023-2024 Election Cycle
For the convenience of the readers, the Commission is also
republishing the contribution limitations for individuals, non-
multicandidate committees and for certain political party committees
giving to U.S. Senate candidates and national party committees for the
2023-2024 election cycle:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Statutory provision Statutory amount 2023-2024 limit
------------------------------------------------------------------------
52 U.S.C. 30116(a)(1)(A).......... $2,000 $3,300
52 U.S.C. 30116(a)(1)(B).......... 25,000 41,300
52 U.S.C. 30116(h)................ 35,000 57,800
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lobbyist Bundling Disclosure Threshold for 2024
The Act requires certain political committees to disclose
contributions bundled by lobbyists/registrants and lobbyist/registrant
political action committees once the contributions exceed a specified
threshold amount. 52 U.S.C. 30104(i)(1), (i)(3)(A). The Commission must
adjust this threshold amount annually to account for inflation. 52
U.S.C. 30104(i)(3)(B). The disclosure threshold is increased by
multiplying the $15,000 statutory disclosure threshold by 1.51143, the
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 2006). See 52 U.S.C. 30104(i)(3), 30116(c)(1)(B); 11 CFR
104.22(g). The resulting amount is rounded to the nearest multiple of
$100. 52 U.S.C. 30104(i)(3)(B), 30116(c)(1)(B)(iii); 11 CFR
104.22(g)(4). Based upon this formula ($15,000 x 1.51143), the lobbyist
bundling disclosure threshold for calendar year 2024 is $22,700.
On behalf of the Commission.
Dated: January 23, 2024.

Chairman, Federal Election Commission.
