This bill amends West Virginia's campaign finance law by updating the requirements for the statement of organization that political committees must file. Specifically, it mandates that the statement includes the contact information—namely the address, telephone number, and email address—of the committee chair. Additionally, the bill introduces a new requirement for an acknowledgment that the political committee will comply with the campaign finance reporting requirements outlined in the law.

The bill also clarifies that the statement of organization must be certified as accurate and true by both the treasurer and the chairman of the committee. Other existing provisions regarding the designation of treasurers and the filing process remain intact, ensuring that political committees continue to follow the established procedures for financial oversight and accountability. Overall, the changes aim to enhance transparency and compliance within the political finance framework in West Virginia.
