The PATCH Act requires politicians to display visible sponsor patches during all official public appearances, sized proportionally to the donation amount.
Any registered voter can file a complaint via PatchAct.com. Complaints route simultaneously to the applicable ethics oversight body, the FEC (for federal officials), local press, and activist organizations in the district.
Covered contributions include PACs, corporations, dark money 501(c)(4)s, bundled donations, and family-routed contributions above threshold.
Companies with zero political donations earn the PATCH Certified seal: a searchable, verified credential.
The PATCH Act does not restrict donations. It requires display only.
No political affiliation. No PAC. No party. Built and maintained independently.

The PATCH Act (Politician Accountability and Transparency in Campaign Holdings Act) is a citizen-originated proposal requiring elected officials to display visible sponsor patches during official public appearances, sized proportionally to their qualifying contributions. It covers every elected office from Congress to the county courthouse. Any registered voter can file a complaint. Complaints route automatically to the applicable ethics oversight body, local press, and activist organizations in the district. A corporate certification program recognizes companies with zero political donations. The project is independent and has no political affiliation. Press contact: press@thepatchact.com.
