CSHB 183(JUD)AM-CAMPAIGN FINANCE: SHARED EXPENSES/LISTS
4:27:17 PM
CHAIR RALPH SEEKINS announced HB 183 to be up for consideration.
MS. JULI LUCKY, staff for Representative Mike Hawker introduced
the bill. HB 183 makes two changes to the campaign reporting
statutes. It allows a candidate to reimburse another candidate
for costs incurred in a shared campaign expense and allows
candidates and political parties to share fundraising lists.
SENATOR HOLLIS FRENCH noted it is currently illegal for one
campaign to write a check to another campaign. He asked whether
HB 183 would change that.
MS. LUCKY said yes.
SENATOR FRENCH voiced support for the idea of HB 183. He asked
whether it was strictly for shared campaign fundraisers.
MS. LUCKY said she did not believe there was a strict
definition. The intent is for any shared campaign activity.
4:30:47 PM
SENATOR CHARLIE HUGGINS voiced support of the bill.
SENATOR GENE THERRIAULT asked in the case of two campaign
expenditures being exactly the same, whether each candidate
could simply pay the tab for one or would they both have to be
evenly split.
4:33:35 PM
MS. TAMMY CAMPTON, Alaska Public Offices Commission, answered
that would be something that should be covered in regulation.
4:35:02 PM
SENATOR FRENCH asked the process for splitting the costs of a
shared activity.
MS. CAMPTON said under the current regulations, costs have to be
allocated equally.
SENATOR FRENCH asked the definition of "shared campaign
activity."
MS. CAMPTON answered candidates sharing any expense.
4:36:42 PM
SENATOR HUGGINS moved SCS CSHB 183(STA) from committee with
individual recommendations and attached fiscal note(s). There
being no objection, the motion carried.
