Bill > H7147

This bill clarifies the definition of an "entity" that advocates for or against a question presented to voters at a financial town meeting, financial town referendum, or election concerning city or town charter amendments, ensuring that such advocacy is subject to campaign finance reporting requirements if expenditures exceed $100 in a calendar year. The updated definition of "entity" explicitly includes business entities, political action committees (PACs), individuals, and tax-exempt non-profit organizations, alongside other recognized business and organizational structures, to provide a comprehensive scope for financial reporting related to local ballot initiatives.
