@nbcbayarea story says how #SB1360 w/ @SenatorUmberg & @BenAllenCA will be first law in nation to require online political image & banner ads to clearly show their top funders on the ad itself.
Together, we all made disclosure history again!...
Thanks to the great coalition of public interest organizations who supported #SB1360 #DisclosureClarityAct!
See coalition letter for why it's so important that voters be able to clearly see top funders of online ads, TV ads, & initiative petitions! ➡️https://bit.ly/sb1360-coalition
Big thanks to #SB1360 coauthors @HenrySternCA @Cervantes4Asm @kevinmullin @AsmMuratsuchi @SantiagoAD53 @JoshBeckerSV @AsmJesseGabriel for supporting our first-in-the-nation bill to add top funder requirement for online ads to #AB249 #CA #DISCLOSEAct by @kevinmullin. 7/
@SenatorUmberg led on new #DisclosureClarityAct #SB1360, working w/@BenAllenCA & us on concerns while making online ads, TV ads, & initiative petitions clearly show top funders. That's why he's a #CleanMoneyChampion!
It passed Senate 33-4 & Assembly 62-10 - bipartisan votes! 6/
#SB1360 also ensures voters know they must be shown an "Official Top Funders" sheet w/top 3 funders before signing initiative, referendum, & recall petitions.
Circulators were required to show them w/#SB47 #Petition #DISCLOSEAct by @BenAllenCA in 2019, but many weren't. ⬇️4/
#SB1360 also makes it easier to see top 3 funders of TV ads for ballot measures & by SuperPACs for & against candidates. #CA #DISCLOSEAct already requires them, but w/long committee names they're sometimes hard to read.
⬇️ shows the problem & the new law! 3/
#SB1360 is the FIRST law in the nation to require online image & banner ads about ballot measures or by SuperPACs to show their top funder on the ads.
⬇️ shows an example of the problem and how #SB1360 extends the #CA #DISCLOSEAct to clearly show who pays for such online ads. 2/
Huge victory against secret money in politics! @CAgovernor @GavinNewsom signed our #SB1360 #DisclosureClarityAct by @SenatorUmberg & @BenAllenCA to make it easier to see top funders of political ads. Thx Governor!
🧵on why it's such a game-changer & how the victory happened. 1/
