We’re here to promote confidence in Washington state’s political process by helping voters and the public understand where money in politics comes from and where it's going.
The Public Disclosure Commission (PDC) was created in 1972 with the passing of Initiative 276. We are led by a Commission —five commissioners appointed by the governor and confirmed by the state Senate—and an executive director. The Commission sets PDC policy and interprets and enforces the campaign finance and disclosure laws found in RCW 42.17A and WAC 390.
We help political candidates, committees, lobbyists, elected officials, and others report timely and accurate financial disclosure data so the public can remain informed.
Learn more about the PDC’s leadership and the role of the commissioners and executive director, and keep up to date about what’s happening at Commission meetings.
The Public Disclosure Commission meetings are streamed live via TVW. For a link to the livestream, click on the Commission meeting agenda.
The public comment period is usually at 9:30 a.m. To provide public comment during this time please call 1-360-522-2372 prior to the start of the meeting to obtain information on how to participate.
