Control On Campaign Spending Is Rebuffed
The Senate Rules Committee approved a narrower campaign finance bill from Sen. Howard Cannon by a 5-4 vote, without hearings on Johnson’s proposal. The Cannon measure omits Johnson’s disclosure rules for primaries and outside income reporting, maintains a 1961-echo form, and adds a $10 tax credit for contributions while Johnson seeks a $100 deduction. House action remains unresolved.
