If enacted, this bill would amend current statutes regarding campaign contributions by increasing the threshold for in-state individuals from $100 to $200. Under the new law, contributions exceeding $200 would require the inclusion of the contributor's identifying information in campaign finance reports, while the aggregate amount of contributions from individuals whose contributions do not exceed $200 would also need to be reported. This change aims to simplify reporting requirements for smaller contributions.

Additionally, the bill would remove the provision that allowed individuals contributing $200 or less to consent to the disclosure of their identifying information. It would also require the Secretary of State to adjust contribution limits and registration thresholds by $100 every odd-numbered year and to account for inflation based on the consumer price index. Overall, these updates aim to modernize and streamline campaign finance regulations in Arizona.
