Plain-language change summary

The amendment to SB 5388 adds a requirement for campaign treasurers and deputy treasurers to complete a training course in order to be certified by the state commission. This training covers important topics such as financial responsibilities, reporting requirements, and campaign contribution limits. The change is significant because it ensures that those handling campaign finances are properly educated, which can lead to better compliance with campaign finance laws and increased accountability in political campaigns. Starting May 1, 2020, only certified individuals will be allowed to serve in these roles, enhancing overall financial integrity in elections.
