AI Summary
This bill modifies campaign finance reporting requirements in Arizona by changing the threshold for detailed contributor reporting from $100 to $200 per election cycle. Specifically, the bill requires that contributions from in-state individuals exceeding $200 must include the contributor's occupation and employer, while contributions of $200 or less will only be identified by name, occupation, and employer if the contributor has explicitly consented to such disclosure. The legislation aims to provide more flexibility for smaller donors who may wish to maintain some privacy while still ensuring transparency for larger contributions. The bill updates multiple sections of the existing campaign finance reporting law, including how contributions are categorized, reported, and tracked. The changes apply to various types of political committees, including candidate committees, political action committees, and political parties, and maintain the requirement that all reports must be filed with the appropriate filing officer and include detailed information about receipts, disbursements, and expenditures. The bill preserves the existing requirement for a certification by the committee treasurer that the report's contents are true and correct, issued under penalty of perjury.
