Worth a look Lobbying · the statement
Lobbying reports name $659.73 in gifts to them in 2024 from 2 sources 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: SAN MANUEL BAND OF MISSION INDIANS $576.83 (food, beverages and lodging); EQUALITY CALIFORNIA $82.90 (food / beverages).

- 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).
