Compliance Deadlines for Lobbying and Campaign Finance in March 2026
March 3, 2026 | Megan Zeiss, Vinnie Cannamela
March lobbying disclosure deadlines are due in 21 states, 5 localities, and Canada Federal, with some states like Georgia, Louisiana, and Idaho requiring multiple reports depending on the branch of government. State lobbying reporting requirements can be triggered by local activity—for example, lobbying any locality in New York requires state registration with COELIG and bi-monthly reports, even without state-level lobbying. Campaign finance disclosure deadlines in March 2026 apply to 9 states plus the FEC and District of Columbia, with political committees needing to track their filing schedules and contribution-triggered reporting requirements. U.S. localities with March 2026 compliance deadlines include San Francisco, San Jose, Jersey City, New York City, and Seattle, with San Jose requiring weekly disclosure reporting.
