Campaigns
To encourage broader participation in the political process and help voters make informed decisions, the Ethics Commission administers one of the strongest campaign finance programs in the nation for candidates, committees, contributors, and independent spenders in both City and Los Angeles Unified School District Board of Education elections. Their activity must be disclosed and, in some cases, is limited. The Ethics Commission also administers a program that provides limited public funding to help qualified City candidates pay for their campaigns.
