SACRAMENTO, CA – A bill to close a glaring loophole in the existing “revolving door” law, was unanimously approved by the California State Senate today.
SB 31, authored by Senator Lou Correa (D-Orange County), corrects an omission in existing law that allows certain local government officials to lobby their former agencies immediately after leaving office.
“I was shocked to discover that appointed members of local boards and commissions are not subject to the same strict revolving door laws that all elected officials, including the Legislature, have to follow,” said Correa.
