Bill Summary
This bill proposes to change the financial disclosure requirements for candidates for statewide office to exclude Social Security Disability Income or any other disability-related income from the disclosure requirements.
AI Summary
This bill would amend existing financial disclosure requirements for candidates running for statewide office in Vermont, specifically by exempting Social Security Disability Income (SSDI) and any other income received due to a disability from being reported on these forms. This means that individuals seeking to become governor, lieutenant governor, or other statewide elected officials would no longer need to disclose disability-related earnings when providing information about their financial situation as part of their candidacy.
