Findings
Context Behested payments
Of $60,500 paid at their request since 2024: 1 source ($5,000) is a registered lobbyist employer
Payments made at their request (Form 803) from sources that also appear in Cal-Access: Sutter Health ($5,000 to Sourewise; lobbyist employer).
What to check- Context: behested payments are legal and public; this puts two public records side by side.
- Whether the official later acted on matters involving these sources.
- The full Form 803 reports (available from the FPPC on request).
- Sutter Health paid $5,000 to Sourewise · registered lobbyist employer
Rule: Behested payments from donors or lobbyist employers
“Unlike gifts and contributions, there are no limits on the amount of payments an official may behest.”FPPC, Reporting Behested Payments – Form 803 ✓ quoted from the saved copy · how this rule works
Context Lobbying
2 of their donors and benefactors lobbied on 11 bills they voted on
Employers that lobbied on bills they voted on (as their lobbying reports name the bills) and that gave $12 in gifts reported by lobbying interests, $5,000 in payments at their request. Largest: SUTTER HEALTH ($5,000); PANDA RESTAURANT GROUP, INC. ($12). They voted aye on 11 of the 11.
What to check- Context: lobbying a bill and funding a member are both legal and public.
- A report names the bills an employer lobbied on, not which side it took: read the bill and the employer's position before drawing anything from a vote.
- The bills on their page, sorted by how much these interests gave.
Rule: Bills their donors lobbied on
