Lists $792.95 in gifts from California Democratic Party in 2024; the limit from one source is $590
The statement lists 7 gift(s) from California Democratic Party dated in 2024, totalling $792.95. The gift limit from a single source was $590 for 2024 (Government Code 89503). The filer's comment on that page: “Senator McGuire reimbursed the California Democratic Party a total of 270.12 for the Departing Member dinner, and so remains under the annual gift cap from the Party.”.
What to check
- Whether part of it was returned, or paid back, in time to not count (the filer's comments often say).
- Whether the gifts are from one source (a couple is two sources) or are of a kind the limit doesn't cover (family, wedding gifts and the like).
- The FPPC's gift fact sheet and Regulation 18940.2 for the exceptions.
