Relating to campaign contribution limits for certain offices.
HB 5304 sets new campaign contribution limits for candidates in Texas. It prohibits contributions exceeding $10,000 to candidates for statewide office (like governor), the legislature, or statewide judicial positions, and $5,000 for other judicial offices. The bill applies only to contributions made on or after September 1, 2025, with prior contributions governed by existing laws. It directly affects candidates, political committees, and donors participating in Texas elections for these offices. The law creates clear, specific monetary caps on individual contributions without altering other campaign finance rules.
