FEC/NYS Compliance Router Launch

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Albany-Based Foundation Launches First FEC/NYS-Compliant Political Fundraising Router for Local Campaigns Global Marketplace for Innovation Inc. Foundation announces institutional-grade compliance infrastructure to eliminate illegal donation risk for candidates across the Capital Region. ALBANY, NY – April 16, 2026 – Global Marketplace for Innovation Inc. Foundation, headquartered at 146 Madison Ave, Albany, NY, today announced the launch of its political fundraising compliance router—the first platform designed specifically to eliminate illegal donation risk for local candidates and campaigns. The platform enforces five hard-coded legal gates mandated by the Federal Election Commission (FEC) and New York State: • **Foreign National Block** (52 U.S.C. § 30118): Automatically rejects contributions from foreign nationals. • **Corporate Prohibition Enforcement** (52 U.S.C. § 30118): Blocks all corporate and LLC contributions. • **FEC $200+ Threshold Data Capture** (11 C.F.R. § 110.1): Mandatory occupation and employer information for contributions exceeding $200. • **Joint Fundraising Allocation Disclosure** (11 C.F.R. § 102.17): Real-time notice of fund allocation across multiple entities. • **Donor Certification Attestation**: Each contributor must certify eligibility before contribution processing. The routing engine supports multi-entity fundraising (e.g., candidate committee, party account, leadership PAC) with transparent allocation disclosure—a structure previously only available to high-budget federal campaigns. "This solves a real problem for Albany-area candidates," said Alfonso Alberto Ramos, Founder and Chairperson of the Foundation. "With institutional compliance baked into the platform, local campaigns can focus on fundraising strategy instead of worrying about FEC violations." ### Why This Matters Local and state campaigns traditionally rely on volunteer compliance expertise—a recipe for expensive violations. The Foundation's router automates all five federal and state mandates, reducing both legal risk and operational friction. The platform has completed a formal **Compliance Stress Test** (8-test audit) verifying all gates function correctly. A public-facing compliance certification badge is displayed on all campaign pages, signaling to voters that contributions are legally vetted. ### Available Now for Capital Region Campaigns Candidates and campaign managers can request a **Compliance Pass Report**—a detailed audit document proving their campaign's donation infrastructure meets all FEC and NYS standards.
