Amend HB 3096 on page 1 by striking lines 8 through 22 and 
substituting the following:
	(b)  If a report other than a report under Section 
254.064(c), 254.124(c), or 254.154(c) or the first report under 
Section 254.063 or 254.123 that is required to be filed following 
the general or primary election is determined to be late, the person 
required to file the report is [civilly] liable to the state for a 
civil penalty of $500 [an amount determined by commission rule, but 
not to exceed $100 for each day that the report is late].  If a 
report under Section 254.064(c), 254.124(c), or 254.154(c) or the 
first report under Section 254.063 or 254.123 that is required to be

late, the person required to file the report is liable to the state 
for a civil penalty of $500 for the first day the report is late and 
$100 for each day thereafter that the report is late.  If a report is 
more than 30 days late, the commission shall issue a warning of 
liability by registered mail to the person required to file the 
report.  If the penalty is not paid before the 10th day after the 
date on which the warning is received, the person is liable for a 
civil penalty in an amount determined by commission rule, but not to 
exceed $10,000.
