Bill > HB1848

This bill amends the State Officials and Employees Ethics Act by removing a previous restriction that prohibited political fundraising on the day immediately before a legislative session day. While the specific details of the existing language are not fully visible in the provided XML, the government summary suggests that the bill eliminates a specific temporal limitation on when state officials can engage in fundraising activities. By removing this prohibition, the bill appears to provide more flexibility for political fundraising, potentially allowing officials to solicit campaign contributions more freely in proximity to legislative session dates. The change seems aimed at reducing procedural constraints on political fundraising activities for state officials and employees.
