A SUMMARY OF HOUSE BILL 4016 AS INTRODUCED 1-25-01

The bill would amend the Michigan Campaign Finance Act to prohibit public officials (instead of, as currently, legislators) from accepting honoraria. The same penalty would apply (a misdemeanor punishable by a fine of up to $1,000 or imprisonment for up to 90 days, or both) as does currently.

MCL 169.250
