The bill proposes the repeal of the existing 2-year ban on lobbying for public employees by eliminating Section 5-7-310 of the Montana Code Annotated, which currently prohibits lobbying by former government personnel. This change aims to allow former public employees to engage in lobbying activities without the previous restrictions.
Additionally, the bill includes a provision for an immediate effective date, meaning that the repeal will take effect as soon as the bill is passed and approved. This swift implementation underscores the intent to remove the lobbying ban without delay.
