Redraft Amendment 10

Retroactive Reporting

Mr. DiDomenico, Ms. Rausch and Mr. Payano move that the proposed new draft be amended by adding the following 2 sections:- 

“SECTION 6. The treasurer of a statewide ballot question committee shall include in the first report filed with the director of campaign and political finance following the effective date of this act all information required to be reported under chapter 55 dated since the closing date of the last previous report; provided, however, that if there was no previous report by the committee, then the treasurer shall include in said first report all such information dated since January 1, 2026.

SECTION 7. Sections 1 to 5, inclusive, shall take effect 30 days after the effective date of this act.”; and

by inserting before the enacting clause the following emergency preamble:-

“Whereas, The deferred operation of this act would tend to defeat its purpose, which is to improve campaign finance reporting by statewide ballot question committees, therefore it is hereby declared to be an emergency law, necessary for the immediate preservation of the public convenience.”
