Concerns business entities employed by the Governor or the office of Governor to conduct certain investigations.
This bill prohibits business entities that hold current state contracts or made campaign contributions to the Governor from contracting with the Governor's office to investigate matters involving the Governor during the Governor's term. It also bars such entities from entering future state contracts or making campaign contributions to the Governor if they previously conducted an investigation for the Governor's office. The rules apply broadly to all business types, including corporations, partnerships, and their controlling owners or family members. The law takes effect immediately upon passage.
