FILE NO. 551

Apr 9, 2026

Summary

The proposal rewrites Connecticut’s campaign‑finance definitions so that state‑recognized tribes are no longer treated as state contractors for contribution limits. It also makes payments for personal security services for a candidate, the candidate’s family, and campaign staff an allowable expense for a campaign committee. The changes aim to clarify tribal involvement in state contracts and to let candidates cover necessary security costs during elections.
