§ 19:44a-20.
Prior to awarding any contract or agreement to procure services or any material, supplies
or equipment from, or for the acquisition, sale, or lease of any land or building
from or to, any business entity, the State or any of its purchasing agents or agencies,
as the case may be, shall require, as part of the procurement process, the business
entity to report all contributions the business entity made during the preceding four
years to any political organization organized under section 527 of the Internal Revenue Code 1 that also meets the definition of a “continuing political committee” within the meaning
of section 3 of P.L.1973, c. 83 ( C.19:44A-3 ). Such reporting shall be made in a manner and form to be developed by the State Treasurer
with the advice of the New Jersey Election Law Enforcement Commission, which agencies
shall promulgate regulations to effect and implement this disclosure obligation. Such reports shall be subject to review by the State Treasurer. If the State Treasurer determines that any such contribution, or any other act that
would constitute a breach of contract pursuant to section 9 of this act, 2 poses a conflict of interest in the awarding of any contract or agreement, the State
Treasurer shall disqualify such business entity from bidding on or being awarded such
contract or agreement. 1
