This bill amends Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 10A.09, subdivision 1, to require certain officials in cities of the first, second, or third class to file a statement of economic interest with the Campaign Finance and Public Disclosure Board. The amendment specifies that individuals must file this statement within 60 days of accepting employment as a public official, metropolitan governmental unit, or as a local official in a city of the first, second, or third class, as outlined in section 410.01.

Additionally, the bill clarifies the timeline for filing statements for various public officials, including district court judges, appeals court judges, supreme court justices, county commissioners, and members of the Minnesota Racing Commission. The language deleted from the current law is the conjunction "or," which has been replaced with a semicolon to separate the categories of officials required to file the statement. This change aims to enhance transparency and accountability among public officials in Minnesota.
