 Senate Bill

No. 1175

Introduced by Senator Rubio
(Coauthors: Senators Choi, Umberg, and Weber Pierson)

February 18, 2026

 An act to amend Section 86107 of of, and to amend and repeal Section 86116 of, the Government Code, relating to the Political Reform Act of 1974, and declaring the urgency thereof, to take effect immediately.

LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST

SB 1175, as amended, Rubio.
 Lobbyist registration and termination.

The Political Reform Act of 1974 requires individual lobbyists to prepare certifications, as specified, for filing with the Secretary of State. If any change occurs in the information contained in a lobbyist certification, or if a lobbyist terminates all activity that required certification, existing law requires the lobbyist to submit an amended certification or notice of termination to the lobbyist’s lobbying firm or lobbyist employer for filing with the Secretary of State within specified timelines. Existing law also requires lobbyist employers and other persons who make specified payments to influence legislative or administrative action to file reports containing information about themselves and about the type and amount of payments, as specified. Existing law requires the Secretary of State to
 develop an online filing and disclosure system that, once operative, must be used for the filing of these reports.

This bill would instead require the lobbyist to submit the amended certification or notice of termination directly to the Secretary of State. The bill would make conforming changes to the filing requirements for lobbyist employers and other persons that will become operative when the Secretary of State certifies that the online filing and disclosure system is functional and additional conforming changes that will become operative one year after this certification.

The Political Reform Act of 1974, an initiative measure, provides that the Legislature may amend the act to further the act’s purposes upon a
 2/3 vote of each house of the Legislature and compliance with specified procedural requirements.

This bill would declare that it furthers the purposes of the act.

This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as an urgency statute.

The people of the State of California do enact as follows:

SECTION 1.

 Section 86107 of the Government Code, as amended by Section 183 of Chapter 50 of the Statutes of 2021, is amended to read:

86107.

 (a) If any change occurs in any of the information contained in a registration statement, an appropriate amendment shall be filed both by online or electronic means and physically, submitting the original one copy of the amendment, in paper format, with the Secretary of State within 20 days after the change. However, if the change includes the name of a person by whom a lobbying firm is retained, the registration statement of the lobbying firm shall be amended and filed to show that change prior to the lobbying firm’s attempting to influence any legislative or administrative action on behalf of that person. Lobbying firms and lobbyist employers that, during a regular session of the Legislature, cease all activity that required registration shall file
 a notice of termination within 20 days after the cessation. Lobbying firms and lobbyist employers that, at the close of a regular session of the Legislature, cease all activity that required registration are not required to file a notice of termination.

(b) If any change occurs in any of the information contained in a lobbyist certification or if a lobbyist terminates all activity that required the certification, the lobbyist shall submit an amended certification or notice of termination to the Secretary of State within the time limits specified in subdivision (a). A lobbyist who, at the close of a regular session of the Legislature, ceases all activity that requ
