Latest fact check

The FEC’s official guidance (FEC Record: Reports due in 2026, published Jan. 2, 2026) explicitly states: “All committees must file a 2025 Year‑End report due January 31, 2026, that covers activity through December 31, 2025.” Federal regulation 11 C.F.R. §104.5 likewise provides that the report for the final calendar quarter (the year‑end report) must be filed no later than January 31 of the following year, which is the legal basis for the deadline. Verdict: True — the FEC’s published guidance and the governing regulation both confirm the statement as accurate.
