SB 2405 Mississippi Senate · 2026 Regular Session

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

SB 2405 requires registered lobbyists in Mississippi to disclose in their annual registration statements whether they represent a "foreign adversary" client. A "foreign adversary" is defined as a foreign government or entity designated as such by the U.S. Secretary of Commerce. This disclosure would apply to all lobbyists working with clients meeting this definition, including foreign governments, political parties, or organizations based in adversarial nations. The bill amends existing lobbying disclosure laws to add this specific requirement, aiming to increase transparency around foreign influence efforts.
