Summary

The bill makes anyone applying to be a commissioner on a Prince George’s or Montgomery County bicounty commission file a financial disclosure with the state Ethics Commission and also send a paper copy to the Prince George’s County Office of Ethics and Accountability. It also tells county officials how to forward, keep, return, and make those statements publicly available. The goal is to increase transparency for officials who serve on joint‑county bodies.
