Ch. 533

1995 LAWS OF MARYLAND

(II)     SERVE ON A FUND-RAISING COMMITTEE OR A POLITICAL
COMMITTEE; OR

(III)   ACT AS A TREASURER OR CHAIRMAN OF A POLITICAL
COMMITTEE.

(2) THIS SECTION DOES NOT PROHIBIT A REGULATED LOBBYIST FROM:

(I)      MAKING A PERSONAL POLITICAL CONTRIBUTION; OR

(II)     INFORMING ANY PERSON OF A POSITION TAKEN BY A
CANDIDATE.

REVISOR'S NOTE:. This section is new language derived without substantive
change from former Art. 40A, § 5-104.1.

Subsection (b) of this section is new language added to correspond to the
clause "a lobbyist who lobbies a member of the General Assembly or a
candidate for election to the General Assembly ..." in former Art. 40A, §
5-104.1. Because "lobbying a candidate" has no meaning under the Maryland
Public Ethics Law, the Ethics Law Code Revision Committee revised the
former provision to apply to communicating with a candidate for the purpose
of influencing legislative action.

In subsection (e)(1) of this section, the words "within the limitations
established under Article 33 of the Code" from former Art. 40A, §
5-104.l(b)(2)(i) are deleted as surplusage.

In subsection (e)(2) of this section, the words "any person" are substituted for
the former words "the lobbyist's employer or others" for brevity.

Defined terms: "General Assembly" § 15-102
"Legislative action" § 15-102
"Person" § 1-101
"Political contribution" § 15-102
"Regulated lobbyist" § 15-102

SUBTITLE 8. LOCAL GOVERNMENT PROVISIONS.

PART I. PUBLIC ETHICS LAWS FOR COUNTIES AND MUNICIPAL CORPORATIONS.

15-801. SCOPE.

THIS PART I DOES NOT APPLY TO AN OFFICIAL OR EMPLOYEE OF THE JUDICIAL
BRANCH OF GOVERNMENT.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is derived without substantive change from the
second clause of former Art. 40A, § 1-201(v)(1)(i) and the second sentence of
§ 6-101(a). It is rephrased to state the scope of this subtitle.

Defined terms: "Employee" § 15-102
"Official" § 15-102
