Bill overview
This bill allows the Fair Political Practices Commission (FPPC) to take over the administration, implementation, and enforcement of local campaign finance or government ethics laws for local government agencies, like San Bernardino County. Currently, the FPPC could only do this with a specific agreement and a report to the legislature. This bill removes those requirements, allowing the FPPC to conduct audits, investigate violations, and bring civil actions related to these local laws indefinitely. It also clarifies the process for agreements between the FPPC and local agencies, including reimbursement for costs.
