SJR 2004: Proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the State of Iowa relating to corporate participation in the political process

Did not pass · It didn’t pass both chambers before the General Assembly ended.

What it does

This joint resolution proposes an amendment to the Constitution of the State of Iowa relating to the participation of corporations in the political process. The amendment prohibits corporations from contributing financially or otherwise participating in election activity or ballot-issue activity. The amendment does not prohibit a corporation formed to engage in the creation, sale, or operation of election equipment from engaging in that business. The resolution, if adopted, would be published and then referred to the next general assembly (92nd) for adoption, S.J.R. 2004 before being submitted to the electorate for ratification.
