New York A06213 prohibits candidates from pre-marking materials to solicit recurring contributions or donations.

New York A06213 amends the election law to prohibit candidates from soliciting contributions or donations using materials pre-marked to indicate recurring payments. The bill mandates that any recurring contribution or donation must receive the affirmative consent of the contributor or donor. Passive actions, such as failing to uncheck a pre-checked box, do not meet the requirement of affirmative consent. Candidates must cancel recurring contributions or donations immediately upon a voter's request. Violators of these provisions may be liable for treble damages.
