Republicans in the state Senate would restore much of the reporting of campaign donors’ employers, under changes they’re planning to a broad campaign finance bill coming before them on Friday.
A version of the bill passed by the Assembly would eliminate all reporting on which businesses political contributors work for, but GOP senators want to leave much of that disclosure in place.
In a session planned for the end of the week, Senate Republicans also want to revise a bill that would split up the state’s ethics and elections agency to retain a role for retired judges on one of the two new boards that would replace the existing Government Accountability Board.
