Montana HB39 repeals law disallowing parties from contributing to judicial candidates.
Montana HB39 repeals Section 13-35-231 of the Montana Code Annotated, which previously prohibited political parties from contributing to judicial candidates. The bill allows political parties to contribute to judicial candidates through joint fundraising committees, subject to certain conditions and limitations. It also amends other sections to reflect these changes, including 3-10-201, 3-10-206, and 13-37-211. The joint fundraising committee must follow specific rules for allocating funds, reporting contributions, and maintaining records.
