MINOR
The bill was amended from its original introduced version to a substitute version prepared by the Senate Committee on Privileges and Elections. The main substantive change is a modification to the election day reporting deadline for large contributions, adding specific time cutoffs for when contributions received on the day before an election must be reported. The bill's scope, applicability, and other provisions remain unchanged.
REQUIREMENT
Added specific time cutoffs for election day reporting: contributions received before 5:00 p.m. on the day before an election must be reported by 11:59 p.m. on the day before the election, while contributions received at 5:00 p.m. or later must be reported by 12:00 p.m. on the day of the election.
