E-X-P-A-N-D-I-N-G Our Online Guides
Dear Clients:
We are always looking to add value to our services. You may have noticed in the past three months we have added 36 new jurisdictions to our online website.
Now that we are starting the last quarter of the year, we are going to increase the amount of information in each section.
Executive Sourcebook on Lobbying Laws:
-
We are separating the penalties so you will see what they are for registration, reporting, and gift violations.
-
Does the jurisdiction have a document retention policy?
-
Is gift splitting allowed?
-
We are also separating the gift restrictions for lobbyists and non-lobbyists.
Executive’s Sourcebook on Political Contributions:
-
What is the jurisdiction’s document retention policy?
-
What restrictions are there on fundraising, as applied both to corporations attending a political event and as applied to corporations holding its own fundraiser?
Executive’s Sourcebook on Procurement Lobbying:
-
Restrictions on pre-RFP communications between a bidder and the procurement department?
-
Are there any post-RFP “cone of silence” restrictions?
-
Difference between “bidder” and “contractor.”
It continues to be our goal to be your #1 online resource for lobbying, political contributions, and procurement lobbying.
Until next month, let your fingers do the walking at www.stateandfed.com and see the amount of information available to you and your organization.
