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.

FEDERAL ELECTION COMMISSION 

[NOTICE 2024–03] 

Price Index Adjustments for 

Expenditure Limitations and Lobbyist 

Bundling Disclosure Threshold 

AGENCY: Federal Election Commission. 

ACTION: Notice of adjustments to 

expenditure limitations and lobbyist 

bundling disclosure threshold. 

SUMMARY: 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. 

DATES: The new limitations apply 

beginning on January 1, 2024. 

ADDRESSES: 1050 First Street NE, 

Washington, DC 20463. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. 

Elizabeth S. Kurland, Information 

Division, (202) 694–1100 or (800) 424– 

9530, info@fec.gov. 

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. 

Coordinated Party Expenditure Limits 

for 2024 

Under 52 U.S.C. 30116(c), the 

Commission must adjust the 

expenditure limitations established by 

52 U.S.C. 30116(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). 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 

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

3This 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).

multiplied by the difference in the price

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

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:

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 × 

1.51143), the lobbyist bundling 

disclosure threshold for calendar year 

2024 is $22,700. 

On behalf of the Commission.
