The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 604, aims to amend subsection (f) of section 9-612 of the general statutes to redefine the term "state contract." The key change involves excluding any fees paid to a state agency for licenses that are necessary to conduct business within the state from the definition of a state contract.

This redefinition is intended to clarify the application of campaign finance laws by ensuring that licensing fees do not fall under the category of state contracts, which may have implications for campaign finance regulations and compliance. The bill seeks to streamline the understanding of what constitutes a state contract in the context of campaign finance, thereby potentially reducing the regulatory burden on businesses that are required to pay such fees.
