Banning Foreign Funds in Ballot Initiatives and Referenda
This bill expands the existing ban on foreign national contributions in elections to include state and local ballot initiatives and referenda. This means foreign entities will no longer be able to fund campaigns related to votes on important local issues, aiming to increase transparency and independence in decision-making processes. These changes will take effect immediately upon the bill's enactment.
