A BILL TO BE ENTITLED
AN ACT
relating to the information required to be disclosed in a
registration form for lobbyists.
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS:
SECTION 1. Section 305.005(l), Government Code, is amended
to read as follows:
(l) The registration form must include:
(1) a statement of whether the registrant is or is
required to be registered as a foreign agent under the Foreign
Agents Registration Act of 1938 (22 U.S.C. Section 611 et seq.); and
(2) a list of each country for which the registrant is
or is required to be registered as a foreign agent.
SECTION 2. The change in law made by this Act applies to a
registration filed on or after the effective date of this Act. A
registration filed before the effective date of this Act is
governed by the law in effect immediately before the effective date
of this Act, and the former law is continued in effect for that
purpose.
SECTION 3. This Act takes effect September 1, 2023.
