Bill overview
This bill makes several changes to Nevada campaign finance laws. It establishes a $5,000 contribution limit for special elections that aren't recall elections, and clarifies that these limits apply regardless of the number of candidates. The bill also removes exceptions allowing corporations and labor unions to be considered ‘committees for political action,’ requiring them to report certain expenditures. Furthermore, it modifies procedures for investigating campaign finance violations, shifting the responsibility to the Secretary of State’s office and introducing administrative fines instead of judicial penalties.
