Massachusetts H875 aims to limit political spending by foreign-influenced corporations.

Massachusetts H875 seeks to limit political spending by foreign-influenced corporations by defining such entities and prohibiting them from making certain political expenditures. The bill amends existing laws to require foreign-influenced corporations to certify that they are not subject to foreign influence before making political contributions or expenditures. If a corporation fails to certify, the expenditure or contribution must disclose that some funds may have come from a foreign-influenced corporation.
