AI Summary
This bill aims to improve disclosure requirements for political expenditures by amending Section 18G of chapter 55 of the General Laws. Specifically, it mandates that if a corporation, group, association, or labor union involved in political spending receives contributions or donations from individuals or other entities but does not reveal the names of all its donors to the Massachusetts office of Campaign and Political Finance (OCPF), their disclosure statement must now include the specific phrase: "(name of corporation, group, association or labor union) does not disclose the identity of all of its donors." This change is intended to provide greater transparency to the public regarding the sources of funding for political activities.
