Bill > HB172

This bill amends Kentucky campaign finance law to clarify how expenditures must be made, requiring that candidates, committees, and contributing organizations (groups that contribute to campaigns) must pay providers of goods and services directly, rather than through an intermediary or subcontractor. It also adds a definition for "expenditure" to the law, which refers to any payment or promise of payment for goods, materials, services, or facilities that supports or opposes a candidate or ballot measure. The bill aims to increase transparency and accountability in campaign finance by ensuring that payments are made directly to the entities that provide the actual goods or services.
