Increased Lobbying Transparency: Disclosure of Foreign Agent Registration Exemptions.

This Act enhances transparency in US lobbying activities. It requires registered lobbyists to disclose whether they claim an exemption from registering as foreign agents. This change provides citizens with a clearer understanding of who is influencing political decisions and on whose behalf, particularly concerning foreign interests.
Key points
Lobbyists must now state if they are exempt from registering as agents of foreign governments or entities (FARA).
The goal is to increase public awareness regarding potential foreign influence on US legislation.
