Bill > SB1581

This bill modifies campaign finance reporting requirements for political action committees, political parties, and candidate committees in Arizona. For political action committees and political parties, the bill changes the filing deadline for quarterly reports from the third Monday to the fifteenth day of the month after the calendar quarter. For preelection reports, the filing deadline is extended from ten to fifteen days before an election. For statewide candidate committees, the bill introduces a new reporting structure requiring quarterly reports every year and a mandatory postprimary report filed within fifteen days after the primary election. For legislative, county, city, or town candidate committees, the bill establishes an annual reporting requirement for non-election years, with quarterly reports and a postprimary report in election years. The annual report must be filed by January 15th and cover the entire calendar year, while quarterly reports are due by the fifteenth day of the month following each quarter. The first campaign finance report of an election cycle must still include the entire cycle to date, and committees must continue to file reports until terminated. These changes aim to provide more consistent and timely campaign finance reporting across different types of political committees.
