Bill > SF3109

This bill appropriates $900,000 from the state's general fund to the Campaign Finance and Public Disclosure Board for the specific purpose of paying legal fees and expenses related to a specific lawsuit, Minnesota Chamber of Commerce v. Choi (case number 23-CV-02015). The appropriation is contingent upon a court order granting the plaintiff's motion for fees and expenses, and the Board is mandated to pay these fees on behalf of all defendants. The funding is designated as a one-time appropriation and will be available until June 30, 2026, which means the funds must be used within that fiscal year timeframe. While the bill does not provide detailed context about the underlying lawsuit, it appears to be addressing potential legal costs for a specific legal proceeding involving the Campaign Finance and Public Disclosure Board.
