HB 412
AN ACT relating to campaign finance.
In Plain Language
This bill changes campaign finance rules to require that campaign spending go directly to whoever provides goods or services, instead of going through an intermediary or subcontractor first. Candidates, campaign committees, and organizations supporting them would all have to follow this direct-payment rule.

Amend KRS 121.015 to define "expenditure"; amend KRS 121.150 to prohibit candidates, slates of candidates, committees, contributing organizations, or anyone on their behalf from making an expenditure to an intermediary, including subcontractors, for the purpose of making a payment to another person; require that expenditures be made directly to the provider of goods or personal services.
