Committee hears contentious testimony on HB 4,018 dash‑6 amendment to campaign finance law

Feb 10, 2026

House Bill 4,018 (dash‑6 amendment) would make extensive technical and timing changes to campaign finance law enacted in 2024 (HB 4,024), including moving many operative dates to 2031, clarifying definitions, introducing independent‑expenditure committees, adjusting contribution and in‑kind rules, and phasing disclosure and dashboard requirements.
