State Lobbying Expense Reporting 

Please fill out the State Lobbying Information Form and submit it by email, fax or campus mail to Government Relations in a timely manner for each quarterly reporting period.

In completing the Lobbying Information Form, please keep in mind the following parameters:

  • Please return your completed form to Government Relations on or before the 10th of the month of the reporting period (i.e., January 10, April 10, July 10 and September 10).
  • Where lobbying expenses on behalf of the University include events such as receptions, dinners or similar types of hospitality, the portion of the expenses attributable to legislators or state officials should be calculated on a per capita basis. For example, if the total cost of a reception which includes five legislators and 100 total attendees is $1,000, then the hospitality expense which should be reported for each legislator is 5% of the $1,000 or $50.

If you have any questions regarding the State Lobbying Information Form, please contact Tim McNulty, Associate Vice President for Government Relations, 426 Warner Hall, 412-268-7778, tpm@andrew.cmu.edu
