HB 1587 Missouri House · 2024 Regular Session

Modifies provisions for "paid for by" statements on political advertisements

HB 1587 modifies the rules for "paid for by" disclosures on political advertisements and related campaign materials. The bill requires anyone publishing or distributing printed matter about a candidate or ballot measure to clearly identify the person or group that paid for it with the phrase "Paid for by." This requirement applies to a wide range of items, including pamphlets, newspaper ads, signs on vehicles, and campaign buttons, while excluding certain personal items and pre-existing materials. The legislation also updates definitions and reporting requirements to ensure transparency regarding who funds political communications.
