This bill would require any private group or individual giving money, goods, or services to help run Michigan elections to publicly certify with the Secretary of State whether they receive foreign support. Certifications must be signed under penalty of perjury, renewed annually, and updated if anything changes. Local governments must report all outside election help quarterly. The Secretary of State will post certifications online, audit reports, and enforce the law. Knowingly filing false or outdated certifications could lead to criminal fines or jail time.
