Bill > SB1389

This bill makes technical, nonsubstantive changes to the Political Reform Act of 1974, which is a California law that regulates campaign financing and requires reporting of contributions and expenditures. Currently, individuals who file reports late under this act are subject to a $10 per day penalty, but filing officers can waive this penalty if the lateness was not willful and enforcing it wouldn't serve the act's purposes. This bill clarifies that the penalty is not waived if a report is not filed within specific grace periods after the filing officer sends a written notice of the requirement, and it also makes a minor wording change in the provision regarding when the penalty is not enforced.
