Bill overview
House Bill 1221 aims to prevent former employees of the Governor’s Office of Economic Development from benefiting financially from deals they worked on while employed. Specifically, it restricts these individuals from accepting jobs or contracts with companies that received financial assistance from the office – such as grants or funds from the state’s future fund – for five years after leaving their positions. Violations of this law would be considered a misdemeanor.
