Maine Proposes Commencing a Rulemaking

The Maine Commission on Governmental Ethics and Election Practices proposed commencing a rulemaking at the upcoming meeting on May 27. The purpose is to update the commission’s rules based on newly chaptered laws from this year’s legislative session. Legislative changes to be addressed include disclosure requirements for paid communications containing manipulated images or audio of a candidate, and an increase to the spending threshold for independent expenditure reporting. If the rulemaking is commenced, an invitation to comment is expected to begin on June 1.
