SB 321: Late signature curing expenditure reports.
The bill aims to amend the Government Code to further the purposes of the Political Reform Act of 1974. It would require committees making late signature curing expenditures to report the expenditures within 24 hours of making them. A late signature curing expenditure is defined as an expenditure made after the election date and before the certification of the election, related to ballot curing activities. This bill furthers the purposes of the Political Reform Act of 1974 by requiring timely reporting of late signature curing expenditures. The bill does not require reimbursement for certain costs. It is intended to provide transparency and accountability in campaign financing by ensuring that committees report all expenditures, including those made after the election date.
