AN ACT CONCERNING CHANGES TO THE CITIZENS' ELECTION PROGRAM.

SB 1533 adjusts campaign contribution limits for state elections based on inflation. It requires the State Elections Enforcement Commission to update these limits annually using the consumer price index, starting with the 2026 elections and then every four years. The bill specifically changes limits for candidates running for Governor, Lieutenant Governor, Attorney General, State Comptroller, State Treasurer, Secretary of the State, and state legislative seats. These adjustments aim to maintain the real value of contribution caps over time as costs of living change. The changes apply to all relevant candidates and campaign committees under Connecticut's Citizens' Election Program.
