Abstract
The prohibition in Section 8-13-1348 of the Ethics Reform Act on using campaign funds to defray personal expenses extends to the use of these funds to pay for expenses associated with membership at private clubs or food and beverage not specifically associated with campaign events. Such expenses are personal in nature and not related to any campaign or office. Expenses paid to private clubs can only be interpreted as campaign-related if connected with a campaign event.
