Committee reconsiders SB2247, corrects effective date and approves measure

The conference committee reconvened and addressed a technical correction to Senate Bill 2247, which regulates political fundraising by executive branch employees. The chair explained the committee "needed to change the effective date from 01/01/2027 upon approval" after noting it had been an oversight in the initial conference draft. With managers on both sides agreeing, the committee took a vote on the bill as corrected and approved the measure in a formal reconsideration.
