Plain-English Summary

The legislation requires lobbyists to provide more detailed information about their clients and spending when they register with Congress, making it easier for the public to see who is trying to influence lawmakers and how much money is involved. The changes apply to anyone paid to contact federal officials on behalf of clients, affecting lobbying firms, corporations, nonprofits, and other organizations that hire people to advocate for their interests in Washington. By increasing transparency, the bill aims to help citizens and watchdog groups track the influence of money in politics.
