In fact, they spent more than $100 million in the last three months of California’s legislative session alone! SB 459, our top legislative priority for the 2021 session, would fix that glaring loophole -- by strengthening California’s lobbying reporting and disclosure laws so we know who’s buying lobbyists and why in real time.. We ask that you write to your state legislators and tell them it is time for greater lobbying transparency and oversight. Tell them to support SB 459. By reforming lobbying reporting and disclosure laws it will allow the public to follow the money that’s influencing our democracy. SB 459 will promote more lobbying transparency in California. Please write to your legislator and ask them to support transparency and protect our right to know who is spending millions to influence our government. https://actionnetwork.org/letters/support-lobbying-transparency-sb-459
