A bill for an act relating to campaign finance, including participation in ballot issue campaigns by foreign nationals and investigations of election misconduct, and making penalties applicable.

Summary

The bill defines who counts as a foreign national and requires political committees that advocate for or against ballot measures to certify that donors are not foreign nationals and have not taken more than $100,000 from foreign sources in the past four years. It also prohibits foreign nationals from making independent expenditures or directing campaign activity on ballot issues. Violations can trigger civil fines of $10,000 or three times the amount involved, whichever is greater.
