Contributions are not deductible as charitable contributions for federal income-tax purposes. Federal law requires us to report the name, address, occupation, and employer of any contributor who gives more than $200 in an election cycle. For the general election, an individual may give up to $2,400 and spouses may contribute $2,400 each for a total of $4,800. Contributions from corporations, labor unions, federal-government contractors, national banks, and foreign nationals without permanent residency status are prohibited.
