A bill for an act relating to lobbying activities of former or future executive or administrative heads of licensing boards, providing penalties, and making penalties applicable.

SF 4 restricts lobbying activities for specific government roles in Iowa. It prohibits former executive or administrative heads of 32 defined licensing boards from becoming lobbyists for two years after leaving their position. Conversely, it also bars former lobbyists from serving in these leadership roles for two years after stopping lobbying. Violations are classified as serious misdemeanors, punishable by up to one year in jail and fines between $430 and $2,560. The bill does not apply to board executive directors lobbying in their official capacity.
