House Bill No. by Representative Tarver enacts a new provision under R.S. 42:1123(36) that allows public servants, their immediate family members, and legal entities in which they have a substantial economic interest to engage in advertising transactions with governmental entities. This provision is subject to specific conditions to ensure transparency and fairness. The public servant must recuse themselves from any matters related to the transaction, and the terms must be comparable to those offered to non-public servants. Additionally, the transaction must be conducted without preferential treatment and adhere to the same requirements as those applicable to the general public.

Furthermore, the bill stipulates that the value of such transactions cannot exceed ten thousand dollars, and it prohibits individuals from circumventing this limit by entering into multiple smaller transactions. The act will take effect upon the governor's signature or, if not signed, after the designated period for bills to become law without signature. If vetoed and later approved by the legislature, it will become effective the day after approval.
