Michigan Campaign Finance Act
Under the Michigan Campaign Finance Act, the Michigan Department of State (MDOS) receives campaign finance disclosure statements from the committees of all individuals who are candidates for state-level offices and all judicial offices. Political action committees (PACs) which support or oppose candidates where the candidate's district is in more than one county are also required to file disclosure reports with the MDOS.
A labor organization must establish a 'separate segregated fund' and register it as a 'committee' in order to receive or spend any money to influence voters for or against the nomination or election of a candidate in Michigan. As soon as a 'person' (labor organization) reaches a $500 threshold, it has 10 calendar days to form and register a 'committee' under the Act.
