Does a closely-held and/or limited liability corporation have a contribution limitation for election campaigns and citizen-service programs?
A closely-held and/or limited liability corporation regardless of its size, purpose and/or structure may contribute in support of, or opposition to, election campaigns and citizen-service programs, to the maximum amount allowable by law. The test concerning corporateness is whether or not recognition of the corporate structure would produce unjust or undesirable consequences inconsistent with the concept. Therefore, where a determination is made that the corporate structure has been used to circumvent the District s campaign finance laws, a single contribution limit will apply to the corporation and its individual incorporator(s). (DC Code §s 1-1101.01 (8); 1-1131.01 (a) (1); 1-1104.03 (a); 1-1104.03 (c); 3 DCMR §§3011.9 and 3011.12).
