HB 2666: campaign finance; third-party complaints
Sponsor: Representative Hendrix, LD 14
House Engrossed
Overview
States campaign finance complaints must be submitted by an identifiable human being.
History
A filing officer may initiate a campaign finance investigation upon the receipt of a third-party
complaint. If the filing officer makes a reasonable cause finding that a campaign finance
violation occurred, the filing officer may refer the matter to the appropriate enforcement
officer. The enforcement officer makes the final determination whether a legal violation
occurred. If the enforcement officer concludes that a campaign finance violation occurred,
they can issue a notice of violation to the alleged violator. Violations that are not timely
remedied may result in legal action to secure compliance (A.R.S. § 16-938).
Provisions
1. Prohibits the filing officer from accepting campaign finance complaints from a third party
unless it is filed by an individual who submits evidence of being an identifiable human
being. (Sec. 1)
2. Clarifies that an entity's third-party campaign finance complaint must be submitted by
an individual on behalf of that entity and include evidence that the individual is an
identifiable human being. (Sec. 1)
