AN ACT CONCERNING VARIOUS CAMPAIGN FINANCE REFORMS RECOMMENDED BY THE STATE ELECTIONS ENFORCEMENT COMMISSION.
HB 7089 clarifies campaign finance rules by replacing the term "solicitor" with "collector" for individuals handling campaign funds. It strengthens enforcement by allowing the State Elections Enforcement Commission to remove or bar campaign finance managers for violations, and to suspend committee activities if needed. The bill requires all contributions to go directly to a committee's designated treasurer (not third parties), and updates rules about who can serve as a campaign finance manager. These changes directly affect political committees, candidate committees, and their finance managers operating under Connecticut's campaign finance laws.
