县监督员Terra Lawson-Remer在2022年使用竞选资金照顾儿童, County Supervisor Terra Lawson-Remer used campaign funds for child care in 2022, amid debate over blending personal and campaign finances.

县监督员特拉·劳森-雷默在2022年为儿童保育花费了7,545美元的竞选资金,这是加州法律允许此类活动的首次使用. County Supervisor Terra Lawson-Remer spent $7,545 in campaign funds on child care in 2022, one of the first uses of a California law permitting such expenses for campaign-related activities. 批评者认为这模糊了个人与竞选资金之间的界限。 Critics argue this blurs the line between personal and campaign finances. 法律允许儿童保育费用被视为竞选活动“合理和必要”,但具体细节不明确。 The law allows child care costs deemed "reasonable and necessary" for campaigning, but lacks clarity on specifics. 目前,36个州和特区允许使用类似的资金来支持承担儿童保育责任的候选人。 Currently, 36 states and D.C. permit similar fund use to support candidates with child care responsibilities.
