Bill > HB234

This bill amends Alaska's laws related to political contributions. The key provisions include: - Increasing the maximum contribution limits for individuals, groups, and nongroup entities to candidates, write-in candidates, political parties, and other groups. The limits are now set on a "campaign period" basis rather than an annual basis. - Exempting contributions to groups or nongroup entities that only make independent expenditures from the contribution limits. - Requiring the Alaska Public Offices Commission to adjust the contribution limits every 10 years based on the Consumer Price Index. - Limiting the amount of contributions a candidate can accept from non-residents to 25% of their total contributions. - Requiring the Commission to maintain copies of all filed reports on its central office and website, rather than at regional offices. - Making the changes to contribution limits retroactive to March 3, 2022.
