The bill mandates that paid signature gatherers in Montana must disclose their status as paid gatherers both verbally and through a badge when approaching individuals to sign petitions. Additionally, they are required to provide information regarding their state of legal residence. This new requirement aims to enhance transparency in the petition-gathering process.

The bill includes provisions for codification, indicating that the new disclosure requirements will be integrated into Title 13, chapter 27 of Montana law. Furthermore, the act is set to take effect immediately upon passage and approval, ensuring that the new regulations are implemented without delay.
