Findings

Worth a look Lobbying · the statement

Lobbying reports name $50 in gifts to them in 2025 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 2025, $50 or more from each of these sources, none named among the statement's gifts or travel: THE WALT DISNEY COMPANY AND ITS AFFILIATED ENTITIES $50 (reception).

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).
THE WALT DISNEY COMPANY AND ITS AFFILIATED ENTITIES $50
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 Lobbying

48 of their donors and benefactors lobbied on 356 bills they voted on

Employers that lobbied on bills they voted on (as their lobbying reports name the bills) and that gave $105,300 to their campaign, $527 in gifts reported by lobbying interests. Largest: DAVITA INC. ($8,400); PHILLIPS 66 ($5,900); SAN MANUEL BAND OF MISSION INDIANS ($5,900); WALMART INC. ($5,000); HABEMATOLEL POMO OF UPPER LAKE ($5,000). They voted aye on 210 of the 356.

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

How this rule works

Context Campaign money · the statement

1 source on this statement also gave to their campaign

Listed here and among the campaign's contributors in Cal-Access: Redding Rancheria ($5,900).

What to check
  • Context: a donor who is also an employer, client or gift-giver is public on both records.
  • Whether the official later acted on matters involving them (votes, contracts, recusals).

Gifts: Redding Rancheria p.3

Rule: Campaign donors also on the statement
