Legislature receives $1,000 for a candidate for State Senator and |
| $3,000 for a candidate for State Representative. A Maine Clean |
| Election Act candidate who receives funds to campaign for a |
| leadership position may not accept or expend any other funds for |
| that election. This bill prohibits a Maine Clean Election Act |
| candidate for State Senator or State Representative from serving as |
| an officer or having control over a political action committee that |
| contributes to a campaign in the State. This bill also requires |
| candidates for leadership positions to register with the Commission |
| on Governmental Ethics and Election Practices within 3 days of |
| becoming a candidate for the leadership position and to submit |
| reports to the commission as required by rules adopted by the |
| commission. |
