PDC training lists conduct rules, session freeze and required code-of-conduct training
Summary
The PDC video reminds lobbyists of key prohibitions (no deception, no undue influence, no contingent compensation), explains the legislative contribution freeze that begins 90 days before session, and notes required code-of-conduct training and profile updates.
The presenter reviewed major prohibitions and the legislative freeze. "You may not knowingly attempt to deceive a legislator," the presenter said, and added that lobbyists may not introduce legislation for the purpose of being employed to defeat it or engage in undue influence, extortion or retaliation toward legislators.
The training also described the legislative contribution freeze that begins 90 days before session and ends at adjournment, during which contributions to certain state elected officials and their employees are prohibited. The presenter reminded viewers that the legislature requires a code of conduct training and that lobbyists should update their PDC profiles after completing that class.
