SB809 expands campaign contribution prohibitions to include state and county grantees and their officers and family members.
SB809 amends Hawaii's campaign finance law to prohibit state and county grantees, their officers, and immediate family members from making contributions to candidate or noncandidate committees. This expansion aims to reduce potential influence on policy-making and improve conduct standards. The bill also mandates that any excess contributions be returned to the contributor within thirty days, with unreturned contributions escheat to the Hawaii election campaign fund.
