SCS/HCS/HB 937 - This act modifies the definition of "legislative lobbyist" for purposes of lobbying laws to exclude legislative liaisons. "Legislative liaison" is defined as any state employee hired to communicate with members of the general assembly on behalf of any elected official of the state; the judicial branch of state government; or any department, agency, board, or commission of the state, provided such entity is a part of the executive branch of state government. Any state employee employed as a legislative liaison who performs lobbying services for any other entity shall register as a lobbyist with respect to such lobbying services. This act is similar to HB 1199 (2019). SCOTT SVAGERA
