LOCAL REFERENDUM NEUTRALITY

Summary

The bill restricts how local governments can spend public funds on ballot measures, allowing only neutral explanations and the arguments of officially designated committees. It sets up a process for choosing a pro‑ and an anti‑referendum committee based on voter endorsements, and requires the election authority to publish their arguments in a voter information package. The goal is to keep taxpayer money from being used to influence referendum outcomes.
