House Bill 131 amends the Election Code to allow a person who was appointed to fill a vacancy in a judicial office to accept campaign contributions for 60 days following the appointment. The act establishes the same campaign contribution limits for a specific-purpose committee as those in place for judicial candidates if the donor is a member of a law firm or a general-purpose committee established or controlled by a law firm.
