Prohibiting members of the legislature from lobbying for a period of four years after leaving office.
SB 308 prohibits former Kansas state legislators from working as lobbyists for four years after leaving office. It amends the state ethics law to bar individuals who were legislators from being hired to lobby any state agency during this four-year period. The bill directly affects former state lawmakers seeking to represent interests before state agencies. This provision aims to prevent immediate post-office lobbying by legislators and aligns with broader ethics reforms.
