Lerner suggests setting the timeframe for certification of campaign finance laws to end on December 31st to avoid confusion over start and end dates.

She proposes making the timeframe 1 year, 2 years, or 3 years ending on December 31st
This would eliminate ambiguity around when the certification period starts and ends
She is commenting on a proposed timeframe mentioned earlier
