    4  and insert:
    5         Section 3. Effective January 1, 2028, subsection (3) of
    6  section 112.3145, Florida Statutes, is amended to read:
    7         112.3145 Disclosure of financial interests and clients
    8  represented before agencies.—
    9         (3)(a) The statement of financial interests for state
   10  officers, specified state employees, local officers, and persons
   11  seeking to qualify as candidates for state or local office must
   12  shall be filed even if the reporting person holds no financial
   13  interests requiring disclosure in a particular category, in
   14  which case that section of the statement must shall be marked
   15  “not applicable.” Otherwise, the statement of financial
   16  interests must include, at the filer’s option: the information
   17  under paragraph (a).
   18         1.a.(a)1.All sources of income in excess of 5 percent of
   19  the gross income received during the disclosure period by the
   20  person in his or her own name or by any other person for his or
   21  her use or benefit, excluding public salary. However, this may
   22  not be construed to require disclosure of a business partner’s
   23  sources of income. The person reporting shall list such sources
   24  in descending order of value with the largest source first;
   25         b.All sources of income to a business entity in excess of
   26  10 percent of the gross income of a business entity in which the
   27  reporting person held a material interest and from which he or
   28  she received an amount that was in excess of 10 percent of his
   29  or her gross income during the disclosure period and which
   30  exceeds $1,500. The period for computing the gross income of the
   31  business entity is the fiscal year of the business entity which
   32  ended on, or immediately prior to, the end of the disclosure
   33  period of the person reporting;
   34         c.The location or description of real property in this
   35  state, except for residences and vacation homes, owned directly
   36  or indirectly by the person reporting, when such person owns in
   37  excess of 5 percent of the value of such real property, and a
   38  general description of any intangible personal property worth in
   39  excess of 10 percent of such person’s total assets. For the
   40  purposes of this sub-subparagraph, indirect ownership does not
   41  include ownership by a spouse or minor child; and
   42         d.Every individual liability that equals more than the
   43  reporting person’s net worth; or
   44         2.a. All sources of gross income in excess of $2,500
   45  received during the disclosure period by the person in his or
   46  her own name or by any other person for his or her use or
   47  benefit, excluding public salary. However, this may shall not be
   48  construed to require disclosure of a business partner’s sources
   49  of income. The person reporting shall list such sources in
   50  descending order of value with the largest source first;
   51         b.2. All sources of income to a business entity in excess
   52  of 10 percent of the gross income of a business entity in which
   53  the reporting person held a material interest and from which he
   54  or she received gross income exceeding $5,000 during the
   55  disclosure period. The period for computing the gross income of
   56  the business entity is the fiscal year of the business entity
   57  which ended on, or immediately prior to, the end of the
   58  disclosure period of the person reporting;
   59         c.3. The location or description of real property in this
   60  state, except for residence and vacation homes, owned directly
   61  or indirectly by the person reporting, when such person owns in
   62  excess of 5 percent of the value of such real property, and a
   63  general description of any intangible personal property worth in
   64  excess of $10,000. For the purpose of this sub-subparagraph
   65  paragraph, indirect ownership does not include ownership by a
   66  spouse or minor child; and
   67         d.4. Every liability in excess of $10,000.
   68  
   69  A person filing a statement of financial interests shall
   70  indicate on the statement whether he or she is using the method
   71  specified in subparagraph 1. or subparagraph 2.
   72         (b) If disclosure of identifying information regarding a
   73  source of income or secondary sources of income will violate
   74  confidentiality or privilege pursuant to law or rules governing
   75  attorneys, a filer who is also an attorney may indicate that he
   76  or she has a legal client who meets the disclosure criteria
   77  without providing further information about the client. The
   78  filer in such circumstance may write “Legal Client” in the
   79  disclosure fields without providing further information.
   80         Section 4. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this
   81  act, this act shall take effect upon becoming a law.
