The bill amends and reenacts section 3-12-1 of the Code of West Virginia, 1931, to officially terminate the West Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals Public Campaign Financing Program, effective June 30, 2026. Following this termination, any unexpended balance remaining in the Supreme Court of Appeals Public Campaign Financing Fund will be transferred to the General Revenue Fund starting July 1, 2026.

Additionally, the bill repeals multiple sections (3-12-2 through 3-12-16) related to the Public Campaign Financing Program, which includes legislative findings, definitions, funding sources, candidate certification, and various penalties. This comprehensive repeal indicates a complete discontinuation of the program and its associated regulations.
