Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
For campaign finance purposes, this bill prohibits a political committee, conduit, or political party from accepting any contribution made with a credit card via the Internet unless the contributor provides the credit card verification value or code and the billing address associated with the card is located in the United States. However, if the contribution is made by a U.S. citizen living outside of the United States, and the credit card billing address is not a location in the United States, the individual must provide the mailing address of the location in the United States that the individual uses for voter registration purposes.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do enact as follows:
