HB 693: Provides for revisions to the Campaign Finance Disclosure Act

Highlights

Abstract: Provides for revisions to the Campaign Finance Disclosure Act (CFDA).

Present law (CFDA) provides, generally for public disclosure of the financing of election campaigns and to regulate certain campaign practices.

Proposed law provides that the Campaign Finance Disclosure Act is penal in nature and that, in the interest of respecting the constitutional rights of free speech and due process, that the regulation of campaign finance shall be interpreted narrowly and strictly and that any ambiguity be interpreted in favor of any person accused of any violation of the CFDA, and that no deference shall be afforded by any agency enforcing the CFDA, including the supervisory committee on campaign finance (supervisory committee).
