§ 2922. Registration; political committees; independent expenditure-only political committees
(a)(1) Each political committee or independent expenditure-only political committee shall register with the Secretary of State within 10 days after making expenditures of $500.00 or more or accepting contributions of $500.00 or more, stating its full name and address. Committees that are not self-funded individuals shall also state the name and address of the bank in which it maintains its campaign checking account; and the name and address of the treasurer responsible for maintaining the checking account.
(2)(A) In addition to the requirements of subdivision
(1)of this subsection, a legislative leadership political committee shall designate in its registration that it is established as a legislative leadership political committee.
(B)The Secretary of State shall provide on his or her website a list of all legislative leadership political committees that have been designated as provided in this subdivision (2).
(b)All expenditures by a political committee or an independent expenditure-only political committee shall be paid by either a credit card or a debit card, check, or other electronic transfer from the single campaign checking account in the bank designated by the committee under subsection
(a)of this section, or, if under $250.00, the committee may make the expenditure from cash from that campaign checking account if accompanied by a receipt, a copy of which shall be maintained by the committee for at least two years from the end of the two-year general election cycle in which the expenditure was made. A self-funded individual need not utilize a campaign checking account, but shall otherwise comply with this section. Nothing in this subsection shall be construed to prohibit the payment of fees required to be made from a separately held online account designated solely to collect campaign contributions made to the committee.
(c)A political committee or an independent expenditure-only political committee whose principal place of business or whose treasurer is not located in this State shall file a statement with the Secretary of State designating a person who resides in this State upon whom may be served any process, notice, or demand required or permitted by law to be served upon the committee. This statement shall be filed at the same time as the registration required in subsection
(a)of this section. (Added 2013, No. 90 (Adj. Sess.), § 3, eff. Jan. 23, 2014; amended 2015, No. 49, § 10; 2025, No. 70, § 14, eff. June 25, 2025.)
