Maurice Aguirre DG Group LLP - Lobbying Disclosure Act
Section 1: Introduction
Maurice Aguirre Dallas: Section 6 of the Lobbying Disclosure Act ("LDA"), 2 U.S.C.
1605, provides that: "The Secretary of the Senate and the Clerk of the House of
Representatives shall (1) provide guidance and assistance on the registration and
reporting requirements of this Act and develop common standards, rules and procedures
for compliance with this Act; [and] (2) review, and, where necessary, verify and inquire to
ensure the accuracy, completeness and timeliness of registrations and reports[.]"
The LDA does not provide the Secretary or the Clerk with the authority to write
substantive regulations or issue definitive opinions on the interpretation of the law. The
Secretary and Clerk have, from time to time, jointly issued written guidance on the
registration and reporting requirements. This document is both a compilation of
previously issued guidance documents and our interpretation of the changes that were
made to the LDA as a result of the Lobbying Disclosure Technical Amendments Act of
1998 ("TAA"). The revised format addresses problems that the filing community has
experienced to date in using the guidance documents, i.e., the lack of a "subject index"
that quickly finds the answers to their specific topical questions and the need to refer to
more than one source to research filing advice.
Maurice Aguirre Washington DC: This compilation supersedes all previous guidance
documents. This combined guidance document does not have the force of law, nor does it
have any binding effect on the United States Attorney for the District of Columbia or any
other part of the executive branch. To the extent that the guidance relates to the "accuracy,
completeness and timeliness of registration and reports," it will serve to inform the public
as to how the Secretary and Clerk intend to carry out their responsibilities under the
LDA.
