The bill prohibits any incumbent partisan elective state official or his or her
personal campaign or authorized support committee from accepting any political
contribution for the purpose of promoting his or her nomination or reelection to the
office held by the official during the period from the first Monday in January of each
odd-numbered year through the date of enactment of the biennial budget act. The
prohibition does not apply to contributions accepted by an incumbent official who is
subject to a recall election or by the official's personal campaign or authorized
support committee from the date on which the petition for a recall election is filed
until the date of the recall election.
Violators are subject to a forfeiture (civil penalty) of treble the amount or value
of any unlawful contribution. Intentional violators are guilty of a misdemeanor and
may be fined not more than $1,000 or imprisoned for not more than six months or
both.
Because this bill creates a new crime or revises a penalty for an existing crime,
the Joint Review Committee on Criminal Penalties may be requested to prepare a
report concerning the proposed penalty and the costs or savings that are likely to
result if the bill is enacted.
