Bill Summary
For legislation relative to campaign contribution cycles. Election Laws.
AI Summary
This bill proposes to change how campaign contribution cycles are defined in Massachusetts law, specifically within Chapter 55. Instead of using "calendar year" to mark the start and end of these cycles, the bill seeks to replace it with the term "election," which is further defined in Section 1 of Chapter 55. This change is being applied to three different sections of Chapter 55 (Sections 6A, 7A, and 9), which likely govern various aspects of campaign finance reporting and contribution limits, aiming to align these periods more closely with actual election timelines rather than arbitrary yearly boundaries.
