This bill amends the Business Corporation Act of 1972 by making significant changes to several sections, including the addition of a new section, 261a. The new section prohibits domestic and foreign corporations from using corporate funds to support or oppose political candidates, parties, or ballot questions, rendering such actions invalid and subject to disgorgement. It also outlines the consequences for corporations that violate this provision, including potential dissolution for domestic corporations and revocation of authority for foreign corporations. Exceptions are made for existing legal obligations and bona fide news stories.

Additionally, the bill modifies existing sections to clarify the powers and limitations of corporations, including the ability to engage in various business activities while emphasizing that any act performed in violation of section 261a is invalid. The amendments also specify that the Attorney General can take action against corporations for violations, including seeking dissolution or injunctions. Overall, the bill aims to restrict corporate political spending and enhance accountability within corporate governance.
