Relating to authorizing the Election Commission to promulgate a legislative rule relating to the regulation of campaign finance
HB 2302 authorizes West Virginia's Election Commission to create and implement a legislative rule governing campaign finance, specifically referencing the existing "146 CSR 03" rule proposal. This rule, initially filed in August 2024 and modified in January 2025, would establish specific regulations for campaign finance practices. The bill directly affects candidates, political committees, and donors who must comply with these rules, though it does not change campaign finance laws itself. This is a procedural measure to formally approve the Commission's proposed rule framework.
