Plain-English Summary

The legislation would require lobbyists and organizations that receive funding from foreign governments or entities to publicly disclose these financial connections when they lobby Congress or federal agencies. This transparency measure would help lawmakers and the public understand when foreign interests are trying to influence U.S. policy decisions. The requirement would apply to lobbying firms, think tanks, and advocacy groups that accept foreign money and engage in lobbying activities.
