Bill Summary
For legislation relative to campaign finance during special elections. Election Laws.
AI Summary
This bill aims to amend the existing campaign finance laws in Massachusetts to address special elections that occur within the same calendar year as a general election. The key provision is the introduction of a "Calendar Year" definition, which allows for a special election exemption where campaign contributions do not exceed the defined limits set forth in the law for each election cycle during that calendar year. This change provides more flexibility for campaign finance rules during special elections held concurrently with general elections within the same year.
