AI Summary

This bill expands the requirement for filing a statement of economic interest, which is a public document detailing an official's financial holdings and potential conflicts of interest, to all local officials, not just those in metropolitan governmental units. It clarifies that "political subdivision" includes cities, towns, and counties, and that these officials must file their statements within 60 days of taking office or within 14 days of the filing period for candidates. The bill also specifies that original statements must cover the calendar month prior to assuming office or filing candidacy, and that local officials will file their statements with their respective governing bodies, which will then make them public. The changes are set to take effect on January 1, 2027.
