Funding of Presidential Nominating Conventions: An Overview
This report details how during the 113th Congress, legislation (H.R. 2019) became law (P.L. 113-94) eliminating Presidential Election Campaign Fund (PECF) funding for convention operations. The 2016 presidential nominating conventions were the first since the 1976 election cycle not supported with public funds. Because public funding for convention operations has now been eliminated, this report provides a historical overview of how PECF convention funding functioned and describes private funding sources that remain available.
