As part of the Public Disclosure Commission’s ongoing effort to redesign its online lobbying reporting system, the agency today launched a new lobbying reporting dashboard.

The new dashboard display allows filers to submit lobbyist registrations (L-1), monthly lobbying reports (L-2) and annual reports for lobbyist client/employers (L-3).

The new view also displays filed reports and reports that are or will be due in the future.

The PDC will be launching updates to the new online lobbying filing system through the beginning of 2025.

See instructions for using the new dashboard below:
