Last week, the snow storm caused the Assembly and Senate to
cancel session on Wednesday. However,
the joint legislative budget hearing on public protection remained scheduled
and so through the snow I went to testify because the League is nothing if not
persistent.
Persistence pretty aptly describes our testimony that day
too. The public protection section of
the budget includes the Board of Elections funding and the campaign finance
reforms the governor included in the budget this year. Once again, the League urged passage of comprehensive
campaign finance reform and for the legislature to pass every campaign finance
reform component, particularly enforcement reform.
Read our full testimony here
and stay tuned for more updates as we push forward on this long time League
issue.
