No Taxpayer Money for Lobbyists

No Taxpayer Money for Lobbyists!
SCR 1009 was introduced yesterday. Also known as No Taxpayer Money for Lobbyists, would give voters in November the opportunity to prohibit governments and government agencies from using taxpayer money to lobby the Legislature. SCR 1009 would allow governments and government agencies to continue providing information to legislative committees, but they would not be allowed to spend our money to hire lobbyists.
