This bill proposes to amend section 41-1233 of the Arizona Revised Statutes, specifically updating the regulations surrounding lobbyist registration. The current law remains unchanged, but the bill introduces new language that expands the criteria under which individuals are prohibited from lobbying the legislature.
The new provision specifies that individuals who have been paid employees of or received compensation from a candidate committee, political action committee, or an independent expenditure committee within the year preceding a regular legislative session are barred from lobbying. This addition aims to enhance transparency and reduce potential conflicts of interest in the lobbying process.
