HB 2020 proposes to amend the Election Code by requiring certain candidates and officeholders to electronically file reports of political contributions and expenditures with the Texas Ethics Commission if their aggregate contributions or expenditures exceed $25,000 in a calendar year. The bill excludes candidates and officeholders of judicial offices from this requirement. Additionally, it mandates the Texas Ethics Commission to make these reports publicly available on its website within seven business days of filing. The bill applies to reports required to be filed on or after January 1, 2026.
