To create a government funding program for Supreme Court candidate election campaigns, funded by a $3 state income tax "check-off" option. Money would be distributed to Supreme Court candidates who agree to spending and contribution limits, and who have raised $50,000 in contributions of $500 or less before a certain date. Supreme Court candidates are selected by political parties at their annual conventions, but which party selected them is not shown on the ballot.
Referred to the Committee on Oversight, Elections, and Ethics
