An act relating to prohibiting business entities from making contributions in State elections

This bill prohibits business entities from making financial contributions to candidates, political parties, or political committees in Vermont state elections. It directly affects for-profit businesses, including corporations, partnerships, and sole proprietorships, while explicitly excluding nonprofit organizations. The law bans both the act of contributing and the solicitation of such contributions for the purpose of influencing elections or political party interests. These restrictions take effect on July 1, 2023, and are codified in Vermont's election laws.
