Existing law makes it a crime for a public official to ask for, receive, or agree to receive a bribe. Current law also prohibits state or local officials from being financially interested in a contract; a violation of this law makes the contract voidable, but not automatically void. SB 34 declares that any contract entered into because of a violation of state or federal anti-bribery laws is void.

(SB 34 adds Section 6102 to the Public Contract Code.)
