AN ACT
To amend chapter 130, RSMo, by adding thereto one new section relating to campaign disclosure reports.
Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the state of Missouri, as follows:
Section A. Chapter 130, RSMo, is amended by adding thereto one new section, to be known as section 130.059, to read as follows:
130.059. 1. In addition to all other disclosure reports required under this chapter, any person, including corporate persons, association, partnership, nonprofit group, or other organization that makes aggregate contributions to any campaign committee, candidate committee, political action committee, or political party committee in excess of twenty-five thousand dollars during a single calendar year shall disclose its state and federal tax records for such calendar year to the ethics commission. The commission may specify that a fiscal year tax report may be made in lieu of a tax disclosure based on a calendar year.
2. The commission shall retain such tax disclosures for a period of not less than ten years, and such disclosures shall be deemed public records under chapter 620. The commission shall release any such tax disclosures upon request as provided in chapter 610.
3. The commission may promulgate rules to implement the provisions of this section. Any rule or portion of a rule, as that term is defined in section 536.010, that is created under the authority delegated in this section shall become effective only if it complies with and is subject to all of the provisions of chapter 536 and, if applicable, section 536.028. This section and chapter 536 are nonseverable and if any of the powers vested with the general assembly under chapter 536 to review, to delay the effective date, or to disapprove and annul a rule are subsequently held unconstitutional, then the grant of rulemaking authority and any rule proposed or adopted after August 28, 2012, shall be invalid and void.
