Internal Revenue Code TITLE 26, Subtitle H, CHAPTER 95 § 9008 Entitlement to payments from the fund (1) Major parties Subject to the provisions of this section, the national committee of a major party shall be entitled to payments under paragraph (3), with respect to any presidential nominating convention, in amounts which, in the aggregate, shall not exceed $4,000,000.
