Session: 2023–2024
ACLU-PA Position: Supports
Currently, only candidates who file nominating petitions are subject to removal from the ballot for failure to file financial disclosure documents—candidates placed on the ballot due to a write-in campaign are not.
SB 255 (PN 218) would extend the requirement for filing a statement of financial interests to all candidates who appear on the ballot in a General Election, thereby providing voters increased transparency about candidates running for public office.
