BILL · 2001–02 SESSION
SB 6276: Public disclosure act
Regarding penalties for violations of the public disclosure act.
Summary
- In addition to the civil penalty a court can assess for violations of the limitations on campaign contributions, it may also order any illegally accepted contribution to be returned. Violations of the prohibition against using public facilities for campaign purposes may result in a court-imposed requirement to pay a civil penalty, restitution, or both and to pay it from non-public funds.
