Whether the paying organizations have business before the office.
Lobbying reports name $1,956.65 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: COALITION FOR RENEWABLE NATURAL GAS $1,956.65 (dinner, golf fees, hotel stay, morning refreshments, recepti).
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).
“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
