Filed Statements of Lobbying Activity and Expenditures
This organization is one of fewer than 10 organizations registered with the Wisconsin Ethics Commission
that is exempt from semi-annual reporting of its lobbying hours
and expenditures. Instead of the semi-annual report the organization has submitted
a written pledge not to spend more than $500 per year on lobbying. This organization
is obliged to abide by the same standards of conduct as pertain to other organizations
that retain lobbyists and to identify each bill or rule on which it has a lobbying
communication.
