2025 Annual Senator, State Senate	2026-02-19	1 investments, 26 gifts, 2 travel

Findings

Worth a look Lobbying · the statement

Lobbying reports name $202.30 in gifts to them in 2024 from 1 source this statement doesn't list

Lobbyist employers' reports to the Secretary of State (Cal-Access) list activity expenses that benefited them in 2024, $50 or more from each of these sources, none named among the statement's gifts or travel: CALIFORNIA RESOURCES CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES $202.30 (dinner).

What to check

Whether they attended or accepted it: the report is the lobbyist employer's account.
What Schedule D doesn't require (Form 700 instructions): gifts returned within 30 days; free admission and food at an event where they made a speech, from its organizer; up to two tickets to a campaign or 501(c)(3) fundraiser from the organization holding it; informational material; plaques worth less than $250.
Whether it's on the statement under another name.
That the report's beneficiary is this person (matched by name and office).

CALIFORNIA RESOURCES CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES $202.30

2024-04-08 DINNER at ELLA DINING ROOM $202.30 (of $3,236.84 for everyone it lists) · lobbyist employer report

Rule: Lobbying gifts not on the statement

“A gift is reportable if its fair market value is $50 or more. In addition, multiple gifts totaling $50 or more received during the reporting period from a single source must be reported.”Form 700 (2025/2026), Instructions – Schedule D ✓ quoted from the saved copy · how this rule works

Context Behested payments

Of $80,800 paid at their request since 2024: 2 sources ($10,000) are registered lobbyist employers

Payments made at their request (Form 803) from sources that also appear in Cal-Access: Calpine Corporation ($5,000 to Community Foundation of Merced County; lobbyist employer); Barona Band of Mission Indians ($5,000 to Madera South High School; 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).

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

7 of their donors and benefactors lobbied on 57 bills they voted on

Employers that lobbied on bills they voted on (as their lobbying reports name the bills) and that gave $573 in gifts reported by lobbying interests, $11,000 in payments at their request. Largest: CALPINE CORPORATION ($5,000); BARONA BAND OF MISSION INDIANS ($5,000); PENINSULA CLEAN ENERGY ($1,000); CALIFORNIA RESOURCES CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES ($202); ELEVATE CALIFORNIA ($185). They voted aye on 56 of the 57.

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

What to check

Who paid, and for what: speeches, conferences and nonprofit-paid travel are treated differently (Schedule E instructions).
Whether the paying organizations have business before the office.

Travel: CA Foundation of the Environment & Economy $12,300 p.9 Travel: California Issues Forum $1,748 p.9 Travel: California Chamber of Commerce $1,436 p.9
