    All principal campaign committees of candidates who participate in 
the Ohio Special Primary and Special General Elections shall file a 12-
day Pre-Primary Report on March 7, 2024; a 12-day Pre-General Report on 
May 30, 2024; and a 30-day Post-General Report on July 11, 2024. (See 
charts below for the closing date for each report.)
    Note that these reports are in addition to the campaign committee's 
regular quarterly filings. (See charts below for the closing date for 
each report).

Unauthorized Committees (PACs and Party Committees)

    Political committees not filing monthly are subject to special 
election reporting if they make previously undisclosed contributions or 
expenditures in connection with the Ohio Special Primary or Special 
General Election by the close of books for the applicable report(s). 
(See charts below for the closing date for each report.)
    Committees filing monthly that make contributions or expenditures 
in connection with the Ohio Special Primary or Special General 
Elections will continue to file according to the monthly reporting 
schedule.
    Additional disclosure information for the Ohio special elections 
may be found on the FEC website at <a href="https://www.fec.gov/help-candidates-and-committees/dates-and-deadlines/">https://www.fec.gov/help-candidates-and-committees/dates-and-deadlines/</a>.

Disclosure of Lobbyist Bundling Activity

    Principal campaign committees, party committees and leadership PACs 
that are otherwise required to file reports in connection with the 
special elections must simultaneously file FEC Form 3L if they receive 
two or more bundled contributions from lobbyists/registrants or 
lobbyist/registrant PACs that aggregate in excess of the lobbyist 
bundling threshold during the special election reporting periods. (See 
charts below for closing date of each period.) 11 CFR 104.22(a)(5)(v), 
(b), 110.17(e)(2), (f).
    The lobbyist bundling disclosure threshold for calendar year 2023 
was $21,800. This threshold amount may change in 2024 based upon the 
annual cost of living adjustment (COLA). As soon as the adjusted 
threshold amount is available, the Commission will publish it in the 
Federal Register and post it on its website. 11 CFR 104.22(g) and 
110.17(e)(2).
