Idaho Bills

Amends existing law to revise campaign finance reporting requirements pertaining to candidates for judicial office.

Amends existing law to revise provisions regarding the persons responsible for filing certain campaign finance reports.

This proposed legislation will revise provisions within the existing Sunshine Law by expanding those who may file a campaign finance report. This is necessary to ensure that the candidate or political committee always has access to file a timely report should their respective treasurer be unavailable. This proposed legislation includes an emergency clause, as candidates and political committees are currently subject to mandatory fines for failure to file a required report in a timely manner under statute that took effect on January 1, 2020.
