Lobbyist Monthly Statement of Income and Expenses
RSA Chapter 15 (Chapter 21 of the Laws of 2006)

Each lobbyist shall file with the Secretary of State itemized statements under oath of all fees received from any lobbying client that are related, directly or indirectly, to lobbying, such as public advocacy, government relations, or public relations services including research, monitoring legislation, and related legal work.  RSA 15:6, I(a).  The statement shall also include all expenditure made from lobbying fees, including by whom paid or to whom charged, any honorarium or expense reimbursement, as defined in RSA 15-B, or political contribution, as defined in RSA 664, made by the lobbyist in his or her professional or personal capacity, on behalf of the lobbyist, the partnership, firm, or corporation, or by the lobbyist on behalf of the client or employer or by a family member of the lobbyist.  Family member shall mean any person related to and living in the same domicile as the lobbyist, who share a common economic interest in the expenses of daily living, including, but not limited to a spouse, child, or parents. RSA 15:6, I(b) and (c).

Statements shall be filed no later than the second Friday of each month and will cover all fees received and expenditures, contributions, honorariums, or expense reimbursements made during the previous month, from fees received at any time from a lobbying client or employer or from funds otherwise provided by the lobbyist, partnership, firm, or corporation, or from the client or employer. RSA 15:5, II.

A separate monthly statement shall be filed by a lobbyist for each client for whom there has been reportable transactions.  A separate statement may be filed for transactions which have been made by the lobbyist or lobbying partnership, firm, or corporation which are unrelated to any specific client, for example reporting a political contribution made by a lobbyist family member. If there has been no change to the aggregate year to date income reported on the last statement filed and there have been no other reportable transactions relative to a particular client or by the lobbyist/lobbyist firm unrelated to any client, an abbreviated report (summary page only) may be filed in lieu of a full monthly statement.
