Foreign nationals prohibited from contributing to or providing independent expenditures for ballot questions.
HF 3340 prohibits foreign nationals from contributing to or funding independent expenditures supporting or opposing Minnesota ballot questions. It defines "foreign national" broadly to include non-citizens, foreign governments, foreign-owned entities, and organizations receiving significant foreign funding. The bill requires political committees and individuals making independent expenditures to certify they haven't accepted over $100,000 from foreign sources in the past four years and to maintain records for six years. This directly affects anyone involved in financing ballot measure campaigns, including committees, donors, and advocacy groups operating in Minnesota.
