U.S. Representative Blake Moore of Utah's 1st District continues his tenure in the 119th Congress as federal regulators maintain strict oversight of campaign finance limits for the current 2025-2026 election cycle.
Legislative Activity in Washington D.C.
Representative Moore, a Republican who has served in Congress since 2011, remains active in legislative proceedings within the House of Representatives. According to official records from Congress.gov, Moore's current term is part of the 117th through 119th Congresses.
Ongoing Congressional Term
While recent legislative actions in the House have focused on matters such as H.R.9517—a bill introduced on June 29, 2026, to amend the Arms Export Control Act regarding the AUKUS partnership—Moore's office continues to manage constituent and legislative responsibilities from his Longworth House Office Building location.
Federal Contribution Regulations
As Moore navigates his current term, all federal candidates remain bound by the strict contribution limits established by the Federal Election Campaign Act. According to the Federal Election Commission (FEC), these regulations apply to all types of contributions for the 2025-2026 federal elections, with the exception of funds provided from a candidate's personal resources.
Limits on Individual Donors
For the current election cycle, individual donors are restricted to contributing a maximum of $3,500 per election to a candidate committee. The FEC notes that primary, general, runoff, and special elections are each treated as separate elections with their own distinct limits. Furthermore, the commission mandates that campaigns are prohibited from retaining any contributions that exceed these established legal thresholds.
PAC and Party Committee Rules
The FEC also outlines specific rules for various political entities. For instance, PACs categorized as multicandidate may contribute up to $5,000 per election, while nonmulticandidate PACs are limited to $3,500 per election. National party committees and other accounts are subject to much higher annual limits, such as $44,300 for certain national party committee accounts.
Cash and Anonymous Contribution Caps
In addition to larger donor limits, the FEC enforces strict caps on specific types of transactions. A campaign may not accept more enough than $100 in cash from any single source for a federal office election. Similarly, anonymous cash contributions are capped at $50; any amount exceeding that figure must be promptly disposed of and used for lawful purposes unrelated to any federal election or candidate.
Compliance and In-Kind Gifts
The complexity of these regulations extends to in-kind contributions, which the FEC states count against a contributor's limit just as monetary gifts do. As the 2025-2026 election cycle progresses, candidates like Representative Moore must maintain accounting systems that distinguish between primary and general election funds to ensure compliance with federal law.
