Rep. Brian King (D)

HB 60 (Campaign Finance Amendments)

Libertas Institute opposes this bill.

This bill would establish donation limits on individuals, organizations, and corporations in supporting candidates for elected office, and would make it a Class B misdemeanor to violate the limits.

As a recent U.S. Supreme Court ruling said on the matter, "No sufficient governmental interest justifies limits on the political speech of nonprofit or for-profit corporations." We agree, and therefore oppose this bill.
