Disclosure of contributors who contribute less than $200 who live outside the area represented by the candidate required.

HF 1447 amends Minnesota campaign finance law to require disclosure of donors who contribute $200 or less and live outside the district represented by a legislative candidate. Currently, small donors within a candidate's district are exempt from full disclosure; this bill eliminates that exemption for out-of-district small donors. The key provision adds these contributors to public campaign finance reports, listing their name, address, employer, and contribution amount/date. It directly affects candidates running for Minnesota House or Senate seats, increasing transparency about local campaign funding sources. The change applies to all contributions under $200 from non-local donors, regardless of the candidate's district.
