This bill proposes the repeal of sections 3-12-1 through 3-12-16 of the Code of West Virginia, which collectively establish the West Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals Public Campaign Financing Program. The intent of the legislation is to discontinue this public campaign financing initiative, effectively eliminating the legal framework that supports it.
By repealing these sections, the bill aims to remove the provisions that govern the funding and operation of the public campaign financing program for the West Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals. This action signifies a shift in the state's approach to campaign financing, potentially impacting how judicial candidates fund their campaigns in the future.
