AN ACT CONCERNING TREASURERS AND DEPUTY TREASURERS FOR STATE OFFICE CANDIDATE COMMITTEES.
HB 5790 changes state law to allow individuals who own property in Connecticut but are not registered voters to serve as treasurer or deputy treasurer for candidate committees supporting state office candidates. Currently, only registered voters can hold these roles, but this bill expands eligibility to include non-voting property owners. The change directly affects candidate committees managing campaign finances for state-level races, requiring them to comply with this new qualification for financial officers. The bill amends Chapter 155 of the general statutes to implement this specific procedural adjustment.
