This handbook is intended to provide general information for those interested in state legal requirements affecting lobbying and campaign finance. The contents are intended to provide general information and not to apply to specific problems. Because the facts in each situation vary, the legal authorities discussed may not be applicable to specific circumstances. Readers of this Handbook are urged to consult their own attorneys concerning specific legal questions. This Handbook will be updated annually. It is important to remember that all statutes and administrative regulations are constantly subject to change. In addition, court cases are constantly being decided. No one should rely on the materials discussed without first determining whether the pertinent provisions have been amended, repealed, or overruled.
