This resolution clarifies and reaffirms that ASUC political parties are prohibited from making any campaign expenditures to support or oppose candidates, slates, or campaigns. This action is crucial for ensuring fair and equitable ASUC elections by preventing parties from circumventing campaign finance regulations, thereby leveling the playing field for independent candidates and benefiting the entire student body. Any party spending that benefits candidates will be treated as a candidate expenditure and allocated equally among beneficiaries, counting towards their individual limits.
