What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Currently, with limited exceptions, each registrant under the campaign finance

law must file periodic reports with the appropriate filing officer or agency specified

by law. The reports must contain specified information, including the occupation and

the name and address of the principal place of employment, if any, of each individual

contributor whose cumulative contributions for the calendar year exceed $100 in

amount or value.

This bill deletes the requirement to report the name and address of the

principal place of employment, if any, of these contributors.
