The San Francisco Lobbyist Ordinance requires lobbyists to register with the Ethics Commission and file reports to disclose their contacts with public officials, the local legislative or administrative actions they seek to influence, and any payments they receive from clients.
The public can access these reports by:
- Browsing or searching the lobbyist directories and disclosed activity
- Downloading the reports in parsed data formats from DataSF
- Querying the Lobbyist API
