Summary

Existing law authorizes the Fair Political Practices Commission, upon mutual agreement between the Commission and the Board of Supervisors of the County of San Bernardino, to have primary responsibility for the impartial, effective administration, implementation, and enforcement of a local campaign finance reform ordinance of the County of San Bernardino, as specified. This bill would authorize the Commission and the governing body of any city, county, or city and county, to also enter into such an agreement, as specified, if the governing body of the city, county, or city and county, or a majority of voters, approves the agreement. The bill would require, if an agreement is entered into, that the Commission report specified information to the Legislature regarding the performance of that agreement on or before January 1, 2019. The bill would repeal its provisions on January 1, 2020. The Political Reform Act of 1974, an initiative measure, provides that the Legislature may amend the act to further the act's purposes upon a 23 vote of each house and compliance with specified procedural requirements. This bill would declare that it furthers the purposes of the act.
