HB4131

Illinois HB4131 allows political committees to use funds for personal security services and enhancements for candidates.

HB4131 amends the Election Code to permit political committees to use funds for personal security services and enhancements to a candidate's personal home or office, including security systems and physical structures, if the expenditures are reasonably related to protecting the candidate from harm. This provision applies to all expenditures made by a political committee after the 2024 general election. The bill also specifies what political committees cannot use funds for, such as personal clothing, travel expenses exceeding reported funds, and educational expenses.
