AI Summary
This bill amends the Election Code to prohibit members of the State Board of Elections and "affiliated persons" from contributing to political parties, candidates, or political organizations. An "affiliated person" is broadly defined to include a spouse or household member, someone sharing a common financial interest through a business, an officer or executive of a business controlled by the member, or anyone holding a significant ownership interest (over 7.5%) in a business where the member also has an interest. The bill also defines "business entity" as any for-profit organization. These changes aim to prevent conflicts of interest and ensure the impartiality of the State Board of Elections.
