Bill > HR1883

This bill amends the Lobbying Disclosure Act of 1995 to require lobbyists to disclose additional information about foreign government and foreign political party involvement in lobbying activities. Specifically, the bill mandates that lobbyists must now list the name and address of any foreign government (including its agencies, subdivisions, or municipal units) and foreign political parties that participate in directing, planning, supervising, or controlling their lobbying efforts. This requirement goes beyond existing disclosure rules and aims to increase transparency about foreign influence in lobbying by compelling registrants to provide details about foreign entities involved in lobbying activities, even if those entities are not the primary client. The amendment adds a new eighth paragraph to the existing registration requirements, expanding the scope of information that must be reported to help policymakers and the public better understand potential foreign involvement in lobbying efforts in the United States.
