S 3391 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Requires enhanced reporting of campaign contributions and expenditures by independent expenditure committees.

This bill would require independent expenditure committees (often called "dark money" groups) to report campaign contributions over $7,500 and expenditures over $200 more frequently and with greater detail. Committees would need to report these contributions and expenditures within 72 hours (or 24 hours if within a week of an election) before elections. The bill also mandates quarterly post-election reports until campaign accounts close, including detailed information about contributors such as occupation and employer. This addresses a transparency gap in current law that allowed these groups to operate without disclosing contributions and spending in the critical period before elections.
