SB601,1,3 1An Act to amend 11.1112 of the statutes; relating to: contributions by
2corporations, cooperative associations, labor organizations, and federally
3recognized American Indian Tribes.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
This bill prohibits a corporation, cooperative association, labor organization, or
federally recognized American Indian Tribe from making a contribution to a
segregated fund established and administered by a political party or legislative
campaign committee. Current law authorizes these entities to make contributions
to a segregated fund of up to $12,000 in the aggregate in a calendar year. Current
law specifies that a segregated fund is a fund established by a political party or
legislative campaign committee for purposes other than making contributions to a
candidate committee or making disbursements for express advocacy.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do
enact as follows:
SB601,1 4Section 1. 11.1112 of the statutes is amended to read:
