Committee introduces RS 32456 to require disclosure of out-of-state travel paid by outside parties
Summary
Representative Stephanie Mickelson introduced RS 32456, a sponsor request requiring disclosure within 30 days when out-of-state travel is paid for by an outside party; the committee voted to introduce the item.
Representative Stephanie Mickelson introduced RS 32456, a sponsor request that would require individuals to disclose out-of-state travel paid for by an outside party within 30 days. Mickelson told the House State Affairs Committee that the draft does not limit how much travel an individual may accept; it only requires timely filing of a disclosure.
Committee members moved to introduce RS 32456 and set it for hearing. Representative Pohanka moved to introduce the request; the motion carried on voice vote. Committee discussion on the topic was brief and the transcript does not show drafted exceptions or enforcement language; Mickelson said she expected questions and would address details at the hearing.
Because the item was introduced with limited discussion, the committee scheduled a hearing for further detail and to allow committee members to ask technical questions.
