An Act To Amend The Laws Governing Qualifying Contributions Of Cash Under The Maine Clean Election Act
LD 207 removes a requirement for cash contributors to participating candidates in Maine's Clean Election program. Specifically, it eliminates the need for contributors to sign a form affirming they used personal funds for cash contributions. This change simplifies the process for candidates receiving cash contributions, as they no longer need to collect these signed forms. The bill directly affects candidates enrolled in Maine's public financing system and their cash donors under the Clean Election Act.
