Findings

Worth a look Gifts · the statement

Lists $1,115.06 in gifts from CA Foundation on the Enviroment and the Economy in 2025; the limit from one source is $630

The statement lists 3 gift(s) from CA Foundation on the Enviroment and the Economy dated in 2025, totalling $1,115.06. The gift limit from a single source was $630 for 2025 (Government Code 89503).

What to check
  • Whether part of it was returned, or paid back, in time to not count (the filer's comments often say).
  • Whether the gifts are from one source (a couple is two sources) or are of a kind the limit doesn't cover (family, wedding gifts and the like).
  • The FPPC's gift fact sheet and Regulation 18940.2 for the exceptions.

Worth a look Lobbying · the statement

Lobbying reports name $2,165.29 in gifts to them in 2025 from 7 sources 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: RECORDING INDUSTRY ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA $629.30 (food and beverage, personalized plaque); AT&T Services Inc. and its Affiliates (ID# E00663) $616.66 (2 tickets to ana gabriel concert); California Grocers Association $478.09 (dinner, hotel room, reception); BARONA BAND OF MISSION INDIANS $179.98 (meal, transportation); and more.

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).

AT&T Services Inc. and its Affiliates (ID# E00663) $616.66

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 $596,187 paid at their request since 2024: 11 sources ($77,500) also gave $70,280 to their campaign; 9 sources ($50,000) are registered lobbyist employers

Payments made at their request (Form 803) from sources that also appear in Cal-Access: Niagara Bottling, LLC ($25,000 to Little Tokyo Service Center; lobbyist employer); Anschutz Entertainment Group ($25,000 to Little Tokyo Service Center; gave $5,500 to the campaign); Athens Services ($20,000 to Equality California, Little Tokyo Service Center; gave $2,000 to the campaign); Reyes Coca Cola Bottling ($7,500 to Little Tokyo Service Center; gave $2,500 to the campaign); Barona Band of Mission Indians ($5,000 to Murchison Street Elementary School; gave $7,000 to the campaign; lobbyist employer); and more.

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).

Context Lobbying

62 of their donors and benefactors lobbied on 514 bills they voted on

Employers that lobbied on bills they voted on (as their lobbying reports name the bills) and that gave $217,580 to their campaign, $4,386 in gifts reported by lobbying interests, $69,000 in payments at their request. Largest: NIAGARA BOTTLING ($25,000); SEIU Local 2015 ($24,000); Service Employees International Union, Local 1000 ($23,600); AIRBNB, INC. ($17,430); MORONGO BAND OF MISSION INDIANS ($16,800). They voted aye on 501 of the 514.

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.
