Revised Guidance


November 2008

In light of the thousands of new filers and the significant new disclosures required by the Honest Leadership and Open Government Act, we are considering revising and providing additional guidance. Comments and suggestions should be directed to the Senate Office of Public Records and the House Legislative Resource Center in time for evaluation before the next reporting cycle.


July 16, 2008

In order to accommodate the thousands of new filers who are required to participate in the LD203 disclosure process, we have amended our guidance to provide some clarification and assist new filers in the completion of the LD203 form.


June 2008
LD-203 Contributions Reporting System

The Clerk of the U.S. House of Representatives and the Secretary of the U.S. Senate are pleased to announce the release of the LD-203 Contribution Reporting system, effective June 30, 2008.

The Honest Leadership and Open Government Act of 2007 requires lobbying registrants and individual lobbyists to file a semi-annual report of certain contributions, along with a certification that the filer understands the gift and travel rules of both the House and the Senate. These reports are due by July 30th (for the January through June reporting period) and by January 30th (for the July through December reporting period) or the next business day should either of those days fall on a weekend or holiday. Registrants, and each of their lobbyists, who were active for all or part of the semi-annual reporting period must file separate reports detailing certain FECA contributions, honorary contributions, presidential library contributions, and payments for event costs.

The Contribution Reporting system will provide access to a pre-populated contribution form for each filer. Access to this system is based on current LDA registrations and reports with the House and Senate. Each filer must sign into the system with a User ID and password. Based on the User ID, the filer will be able to update contact information, create a new filing for a reporting period, and file their form. All communications regarding filing and account status are automated and will be sent to the address on file for an account via email.

Registrants will use the same ID and password that are used to file other lobbying disclosure forms to sign into the system, and must verify the registered lobbyist name before an account can be created for each employee. When a lobbyist name has been verified by the employer, the lobbyist must create a unique password before access to the system is permitted.

Features of the new system and filing process include:

  • Automated retrieval of lobbyist ID numbers and passwords;
  • Pre-populated forms containing the appropriate ID numbers and names, as well as contact information, for each filer;
  • Filings that can be saved on the system and retrieved to append before filing or to amend after filing;
  • A streamlined process to file forms with the House and Senate with a single button to sign the form with your ID and password and submit it;
  • An online help manual and demonstrations accessible from each screen;
  • A system that works on Windows and Macintosh computers, requiring only a User ID and password to create and file forms.

To assist you, training is available on DVD (which will be mailed to each active registrant) and online from our Web sites. These tutorials will show you, step-by-step, how to use the new filing system. To provide ongoing support, a written User Manual, a Troubleshooting Guide and Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) are also available from the Web site listed below.

Lobbying Disclosure Forms Update

The Clerk of the House and The Secretary of the Senate are pleased to announce that the LD-2 quarterly reporting form was released on March 3, 2008.

This section contains the semiannual report form (LD-2) version 6.0.0 that must be signed using the Senate ID and password, and will be submitted to both the House and Senate at the same time.

December 2007
Single Filing Location for House and Senate Filings

The Clerk of the U.S. House of Representatives and the Secretary of the Senate are pleased to advise you of the following new lobby report filing procedures resulting from the passage of the Honest Leadership and Open Government Act of 2007 (Public Law 110-81), which amends the Lobbying Disclosure Act of 1995. The Secretary and the Clerk have combined their filing processes so that you may file your forms at a single location that does not require an ACES digital signature.

As of December 10, 2007, new registration and reporting forms will be available that enable simultaneous filing with the Clerk and the Secretary using a Senate password. These forms, version 5.0.1, may be used for the 2007 Year End filing period and are available on the Windows and Macintosh Forms and Software page.

Previously issued registration and reporting forms that use the digital signature will be accepted by the Secretary and the Clerk until March 15, 2008. After this date, you must use the new version 5.0.1 forms that file electronically at a single location with the Senate password.

We invite you to join the Lobbying Disclosure subscribers list, so that you are notified via email of future filing deadlines and pertinent information regarding Lobbying Disclosure Filing Procedures.

For further information, please contact the Legislative Resource Center at 202-226-5200 or the Senate Office of Public Records at 202-224-0758. For a detailed list of what's new for the next filing period, please click on the appropriate link below:
