This bill requires that anyone who spends money on any type of advertisement advocating for the election or defeat of a candidate must clearly identify the person, candidate or campaign committee paying for the ad.  No ad may use the name or "any colorable imitation" of the name of a person or organization in such an ad without the authorization of the person or organization.  A violation of this law would be a misdemeanor.

Under current law, development authorities must publish any transaction with a member of the board of directors that is in excess of $200 per quarter in the legal organ.  This bill provides that such transactions do not have to be published if the development authority determines that the interest or involvement would not reasonably be expected to influence the member of the board of directors.  The decision of the development authority would be final and not subject to review.
