Bill Summary
A BILL FOR AN ACT relating to campaign expenditures; to amend sections 49-1446.02 and 49-1446.03, Reissue Revised Statutes of Nebraska; to provide for expenditures for security services and systems; to harmonize provisions; to repeal the original sections; and to declare an emergency.
AI Summary
This bill amends the Nebraska Political Accountability and Disclosure Act, which governs campaign finance, to allow campaign committees to spend funds on security services and systems. Specifically, it adds "security services and systems" to the list of permissible expenditures for campaign committees, which includes items like security personnel, hardware, software, electronic security equipment, installation, maintenance, monitoring, and other physical and structural security measures. This change is made by inserting new language into existing sections of the law that outline what campaign funds can and cannot be used for, effectively expanding the scope of allowable expenses to include these security-related costs, while also repealing the original versions of these sections.
