Can I use email marketing to fundraise in Louisiana? What are the requirements?
Requirements for Email Fundraising in Louisiana
Louisiana has specific laws and regulations regarding email fundraising for political campaigns.
According to [1]([3]:), political text messages can be sent without the recipient’s prior consent if the message’s sender does not use autodialing. However, under statutory law and Committee on House Administration regulations, a Member is prohibited from spending official funds to make any unsolicited mass communication within 90 days of any election in which the Member’s name is on the ballot [3].
In addition, the Federal Election Campaign Act (FECA) regulates fundraising activities in connection with funds that comply with the limits, prohibitions, and reporting requirements [5].
However, it is important to note that Louisiana has its own set of laws and regulations regarding email fundraising. Unfortunately, we could not find any specific information on Louisiana’s laws and regulations regarding email fundraising. Therefore, we suggest consulting with a legal expert or the Louisiana Secretary of State’s office for more information.
In summary, while federal laws and regulations provide some guidance on email fundraising for political campaigns, it is important to also consider state-specific laws and regulations. We recommend seeking legal advice or consulting with the Louisiana Secretary of State’s office for more information.
