SB 550 Pennsylvania Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

An Act amending Title 65 (Public Officers) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in ethics standards and financial disclosure, further providing for statement of financial interests required to be filed and for powers and duties of commission.

SB 550 requires Pennsylvania statewide officials and General Assembly members to file their financial interest statements electronically starting May 1, 2026, replacing paper submissions. It mandates the Ethics Commission to create a searchable public database on its website by that date, allowing users to filter filings by individual name, office held, filing year, and whether a filing was amended. The database must also link amended filings to original submissions and offer email notifications for new filings. These changes aim to improve public access to financial disclosure records for state officials.
