Allows payments from a candidate or campaign committee to be made via mobile payment services
HB 1158 allows political candidates and campaign committees to accept and make payments for campaign activities using mobile payment services like Venmo or Zelle. This bill amends campaign finance laws to explicitly permit mobile payments as a valid method, alongside traditional forms like cash and checks. It directly affects candidates and their committees by expanding how they can handle contributions and expenses in digital transactions. The change updates the legal framework to reflect modern payment technologies without altering existing reporting requirements for campaign finances.
