The resolution SCR1002 proposes to increase the threshold for campaign contributions from in-state individuals before their identifying information must be disclosed in campaign finance reports, raising it from $100 to $200. This change is subject to voter approval and aims to simplify reporting requirements for smaller contributions. Currently, contributions exceeding $100 require the contributor's name, occupation, and employer to be included in the reports, while those under this amount can be aggregated without individual identification.

Additionally, the resolution mandates that campaign finance reports must include the total contributions from all in-state individuals whose contributions do not exceed $200 for the election cycle. The Secretary of State is tasked with submitting this proposition to voters during the next general election, and the measure will only take effect if approved by the electorate and proclaimed by the Governor. The resolution does not anticipate any fiscal impact on the state General Fund.
