Summary

The bill lets a member’s campaign finance entity pay back the member for buying, installing, maintaining, or upgrading a home security system at the member’s primary residence, and also lets the General Assembly reimburse a member who used personal money for the same. reimbursements are capped at $1,000 per term and can only occur once per election cycle (campaign funds) or once per term (personal funds). The measure aims to improve legislators’ safety while preventing abuse of public or campaign money.
