S 3392 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Extends statute of limitations for campaign finance violations.

This bill extends the time limit for the New Jersey Election Law Enforcement Commission (ELEC) to pursue enforcement actions against campaign finance violations from two years to four years. The extension applies to violations occurring after the bill's enactment, with the four-year period calculated from the date of the election involved - not the violation's occurrence. This change aligns with a 2023 ELEC recommendation and allows more time for investigations into potential campaign finance law breaches affecting candidates, campaigns, and political committees. The new four-year limit applies retroactively to violations occurring after the bill's effective date.
