The bill mandates the Campaign Finance and Public Disclosure Board to create and publish a comprehensive handbook for lobbying, which must be accessible on the board's website and written in plain language. This handbook is required to cover essential topics such as lobbyist registration requirements, including when a person must register and the types of activities that contribute to the dollar amount thresholds. It will also clarify which activities and expenses do not count toward these thresholds but still need to be reported, as well as the differences in lobbying various governmental entities.

Additionally, the bill stipulates that the handbook must be regularly updated to reflect any changes in statutes and rules, with input from registered lobbyists who are not full-time professionals, particularly those representing nonprofit organizations and those led by individuals from diverse backgrounds. The effective date for this section is the day after final enactment, although the board is not obligated to publish the handbook until January 15, 2026.
