Summary

The bill makes it illegal for anyone who is not a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident to give money or other valuable things to influence a state or local ballot measure, and bars anyone from accepting such contributions. It expands existing rules that already bar foreign nationals from election‑related spending. The measure was intended to protect Mississippi elections but died in committee.
