  State Rep. Angela Rigas and State Sen. Jonathan Lindsey introduced bills that aim to close a campaign finance loophole recently highlighted in a case involving Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn

Michigan lawmakers are pushing to close a loophole in state finance laws that currently exempts the Secretary of State from disclosing certain financial transactions, following a report by the state's watchdog agency. The report highlighted that the Secretary of State's office had not reported nearly $250,000 in credit card transactions over a two-year period, which included expenditures on office supplies and travel. The proposed legislation aims to ensure transparency and accountability by requiring the Secretary of State to adhere to the same financial disclosure rules as other state agencies. This move comes amidst growing concerns over the use of public funds and the need for stricter oversight of state expenditures.
