The bill H. 4250 proposes an amendment to Section 8-13-1314 of the South Carolina Code of Laws, which governs campaign contribution limits and restrictions. The primary change is to increase the contribution limit for certain candidates from one thousand dollars to three thousand five hundred dollars per election cycle. Specifically, this new limit applies to candidates for statewide office and candidates for other offices, with the same limit of three thousand five hundred dollars also applicable to statewide candidates elected jointly.

In addition to the increase in contribution limits, the bill maintains existing restrictions on cash contributions and contributions from registered lobbyists. The act will take effect upon approval by the Governor.
