This bill amends RSA 664 by adding a new section, 664:11-a, which allows candidates for state office and current state officeholders to utilize up to $3,000 of their campaign funds for security measures. The bill specifies that these funds can be used for reasonable security costs that address ongoing threats or dangers related to their status as candidates or officeholders, and such expenditures will not be classified as personal use. The bill outlines what constitutes "usual and normal charge" for goods and services, ensuring that the costs are commercially reasonable.

The security measures eligible for funding include a variety of items and services, such as non-structural security devices (e.g., locks and alarm systems), structural security devices (e.g., gates and fencing), professional security personnel, and cybersecurity solutions. The bill emphasizes that structural devices must be solely for security purposes and not for property enhancement. The act is set to take effect 60 days after its passage.
