I wonder how will a law saying you can donate to the candidate how ever much you want but if it is over a 1500 dollars in an election cycle you can not have contact with the candidate or those working in government in policy making positions.

Such a restriction would run afoul of the First Amendment...

"Congress shall make no law...abridging...the right of the people...

to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."
