HB996

Louisiana HB996 allows candidates to use campaign funds for clothing required for holding office.

Louisiana HB996 amends the state's campaign finance laws to clarify that certain clothing expenses are not presumed to be for personal use. Specifically, it allows candidates to use campaign funds for clothing, including belts and footwear, required for holding office, as well as expenses for cleaning and maintaining such clothing. This change aims to ensure that candidates can properly outfit themselves for their public duties without the presumption that these expenses are personal.
