Committee hears bill to require 1,000 prefiling signatures and ban per‑signature pay Lawmakers heard House Bill 22‑59, the Initiative Integrity Act, which would require sponsors to submit 1,000 valid voter signatures before ballot‑title drafting and ban paying circulators per signature; supporters said it limits misleading practices, while secretaries of state and many witnesses warned it could chill participation and raise administrative costs.

– Dodging taxes
– Outsourcing risk
– Monetizing attention
– Externalizing harm
