HI HB1084

Prohibits lobbyists from giving gifts to elected officials in the legislature or employees in the executive branch when the gift can be reasonably inferred to be intended to influence their official duties or reward official actions.

Gifts covered include money, service, loan, travel, entertainment, hospitality, things, or promises in any form, whether given directly or indirectly.

Authorizes the state ethics commission to assess an administrative fine for violations of the gift prohibition, though the specific fine amount is not specified in the bill text.

Applies to conduct prospectively upon the bill's approval, with no retroactive effect on rights, duties, or proceedings that existed before enactment.
