AZ HB2665

Requires public officers to disclose any benefits received in the form of travel, lodging, or registration fees (scholarships, reduced rates, or reimbursements) with specific dollar amounts listed separately, with no minimum amount threshold and requiring disclosure of donor/payor names and addresses.

Expands the definition of "lobbying" to include communicating with or assisting legislators regarding draft, proposed, or model legislation at conferences, meetings, or other events, regardless of event location or sponsorship type.

Adds registration fees, scholarships, and reduced rates as separate reportable expenditure categories for principals and lobbyists, requiring itemization of all donors or payors into aggregated accounts funding these benefits, regardless of amount.

Requires the Secretary of State to post financial disclosure statement information on its website as public record.

Clarifies that persons providing technical information or drafting advice to legislators cannot do so in the presence of, at the request of, or with a legislator, and that the legislature does not constitute a quasi-judicial body for attorney representation exemptions.
