Bill > A10238

This bill, known as the "Campaign finance intermediary disclosure act," aims to regulate political contribution activities by intermediaries. It requires the disclosure of certain identifying information when contributions are made by an intermediary to a candidate or a committee. Specifically, the bill defines an "intermediary" as an individual, corporation, or other entity that delivers contributions from another person or solicits contributions to a candidate, authorized committee, or party committee. The bill mandates that intermediaries must indicate the name, mailing address, and other details of the contributor to the recipient candidate or committee. Additionally, the recipient must report to the state board of elections any intermediary who delivers or solicits contributions exceeding $500 in the aggregate, including the intermediary's information. The contributions delivered by an intermediary are considered contributions from the original contributor, not the intermediary.
