An Act amending Title 65 (Public Officers) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in lobbying disclosure, further providing for prohibited activities.

SB 221 prohibits lobbyists from holding certain government positions in Pennsylvania, directly affecting individuals working as lobbyists who might seek new roles as public officials, agency employees, or board members of state universities. The bill amends lobbying disclosure law (Title 65, §13A07(f)(1.1)) to explicitly ban lobbyists from being appointed or employed in roles defined under 2 Pa.C.S. §101, including Commonwealth agency employees or members of state university governing boards. This restriction applies only to new appointments or employment beginning after the bill's effective date (60 days after enactment), not to current positions. The measure aims to prevent conflicts of interest by separating lobbying activities from direct government service.
