Maddy summaryHB 308 increases the matching funds provided to candidates in Oregon's partial public financing program for election campaigns. Specifically, it boosts the rate at which public funds match qualifying contributions when candidates raise more than a set threshold (excess qualifying contributions). This directly affects candidates who participate in the program and meet the contribution requirements. The bill makes no changes to eligibility rules but enhances the financial support available for qualifying campaign contributions.
