Foreign Citizen: Can I Donate Money to a Political Campaign?

April 29th, 2008 | Category: News

In the height of the political season, we have been asked numerous times by foreign citizens, “Can I contribute money to a political candidate’s campaign?”

The short answer, is ‘Yes, you can, but only if you are a legal permanent resident (green card holder).’ This comes from the Federal Election Campaign Act and the definition of “foreign person” which excludes green card holders.

See this article for more details and on what election-related activities by foreign citizens are permitted.
