Connecticut SB00490 amends the definition of "contribution" to exclude certain voluntary payments made by contributors to online political donation platforms. It also mandates that online platforms collecting contributions must not allow automatically recurring contributions without the affirmative consent of the contributor. The bill specifies that passive actions, such as failing to uncheck a prechecked box, do not constitute affirmative consent. This legislation aims to clarify the scope of contributions and enhance transparency in political donations.
