Committee approves bipartisan bill to allow disposal of certain campaign records after four years
Summary
Senator Figures presented SB166, a one-page bipartisan bill permitting disposal of specified campaign records after four years; the committee approved the bill by unanimous consent without roll call.
A state senate committee approved SB166 on Feb. 6, a one-page bipartisan bill presented by Senator Figures that would permit the disposal of certain campaign records after four years.
Senator Figures described the measure as "wonderful" and repeatedly emphasized its small, limited scope, calling it "a wonderful bipartisan bill" and noting the simplicity of the change. She told the committee she has been "decluttering" and framed the bill as a practical housekeeping step for campaign offices.
A committee member moved to approve SB166. Senator Figures asked a procedural question and the chair indicated the committee would proceed. The bill was approved "without objection," and Senator Figures thanked the chair and members.
The transcript records the presentation, a motion to approve, and the committee's unanimous consent; it does not include text of the bill beyond the sponsor's description nor a roll-call tally.
