Washington Lobbying at a Glance
I. What is the Definition of Lobbying?
Washington state lobbying law regulates direct and indirect attempts to influence the legislative and executive branches of state government.
Lobbying is defined as attempting to influence the passage or defeat of any legislation or the adoption or rejection of any rule, standard, rate, or other legislative enactment of any state agency under
the Administrative Procedure Act.1
Legislation includes bills, resolutions, motions, amendments, nominations, and any other matters that
are pending, proposed or which may be subject to action by the state legislature. Legislation also includes all bills and resolutions that are pending approval by the governor.2

II. Who Must Register?
Lobbyists must register with the Public Disclosure Commission.3 The registration must occur before
engaging in any lobbying activity, or within thirty (30) days of being employed as a lobbyist, whichever
comes first.4 Registrations expire on the second Monday of January in each odd-numbered year.5
The term lobbyist is defined as any person who lobbies on behalf of another or on his/her own behalf.6
A lobbyist employer is the person who compensates a lobbyist for acting as a lobbyist and on whose
behalf the lobbyist lobbies.7
PL

The lobbyist must submit written authorization from each of the lobbyist’s employers confirming the
engagement.8
When a lobbyist is employed by an entity whose members include, or when the entity’s lobbyist lobbies
for, business, groups, associations or organizations, the lobbyist must include in his registration documents the name and address of each member of the lobbyist’s client who has paid the client more than
$500 in the past two years or which owes $500 in the current year. This applies to lobbyists whose employers are businesses or trade associations.9
At the time of filing a registration, a lobbyist must submit a recent photograph of himself with the name
of the lobbyist’s employer, the duration of the lobbyist’s employment and a brief biographical description and any other information the lobbyists wishes to submit, limited to fifty words. This information
