Campaign finance; expound on the prohibition of campaign contributions for foreign nationals.

SB 2653 prohibits foreign nationals from contributing to campaigns for constitutional amendments, local ballot measures, or similar elections in Mississippi. It makes it unlawful for anyone to knowingly solicit, accept, or aid such contributions, with violations punishable by fines up to $10,000 or six months in jail. Campaigns unknowingly receiving foreign contributions must return the funds to the Secretary of State within 30 days, or face penalties. The law applies to all election-related contributions, including those for non-office races like ballot initiatives.
