A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO AMEND RULE 12.4 OF THE RULES OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, RELATING TO THE REQUIREMENT THAT A CANDIDATE FOR OFFICE OR COMMITTEE WORKING ON HIS BEHALF MUST MAINTAIN A RECORD OF ALL FUNDS AND CONTRIBUTIONS RECEIVED, SO AS TO REQUIRE THE FULL ADDRESS OF EACH INDIVIDUAL OR GROUP CONTRIBUTING TO THE CANDIDATE.

Amend Title To Conform

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That Rule 12.4 of the House is amended to read:

"12.4 A candidate for office or any committee working on behalf of a candidate for office, or any duly organized group or political party receiving or soliciting funds for the support of a political candidate or candidates shall maintain a record of all funds and contributions received, with the name, full address, and amount of each individual or group contributing and to what candidate the contribution was made. Duplicate, certified originals of the list showing the names of all contributors must be filed with the House Ethics Committee within ten days after the end of each calendar quarter in which funds are received or expended preceding an election and within thirty days after each election in which such the contributions are sought or received. The candidate, or committee, or group or party shall maintain a current list of all contributors during the two-week period before the election, which must be open to public inspection upon request. When a final list is filed with the House Ethics Committee the candidate or group receiving the funds shall file a certified report stating the amounts expended and for what purposes, how much is retained and what is its ultimate distribution. Provided, however, that the names and addresses of contributors need not be maintained if the contributors give one hundred dollars or less."
