SB 2890 Mississippi Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Registered lobbyists; require disclosure of representation of foreign adversary client.

SB 2890 would require Mississippi lobbyists to disclose in their annual registration statements if they represent a client from a country designated as a "foreign adversary" by the U.S. government. The bill defines "foreign adversary" as a foreign government or entity designated by the U.S. Secretary of Commerce and "foreign principal" as foreign governments, political parties, or businesses in such countries. This disclosure mandate applies specifically to lobbyists working for these foreign clients, increasing transparency in lobbying activities. The bill aims to clarify and strengthen existing lobbying disclosure rules for foreign-linked advocacy.
