CAMPAIGN FINANCE: Provides relative to filing financial disclosure statements after qualifying for office. (8/1/24)
This bill requires candidates for certain elected offices in Louisiana to file financial disclosure statements within three business days after their candidacy qualifying period ends. It applies to individuals running for positions where the current officeholder is already mandated to submit these reports under existing state laws. The legislation also clarifies that if a candidate already holds a job requiring a similar financial report, submitting that existing document satisfies the new filing requirement.
