Gov. Newsom signed a bill into law specifically covering the Los Angeles Metropolitan Transportation Authority (LAMTA) Board code of conduct and lobbying rules.

Assembly Bill 3123 revises and recasts the agency’s code of conduct by specifying board members and certain designated employees will be subject to all applicable state law and the authority’s administrative code.

This change eliminates specific rules regarding a construction company, engineering firm, vendor, or other various business entities from giving a board member or employee a contribution of over $10 in value.

The revolving door provision for board members and certain designated employees of LAMTA is also reduced from 3 years to 12 months.

The bill become effective January 1, 2025.
