The Lobbying Disclosure Act of 1995 ( 2 U.S.C. 1601 et seq.) is amended by inserting after section 26, as added by section 205, the following: In this section, the term covered lobbyist means— a lobbyist that is registered or is required to register under section 4(a)(1); an organization that employs 1 or more lobbyists and is registered, or is required to register, under section 4(a)(2); and an employee listed or required to be listed as a lobbyist by a registrant under section 4(b)(6) or 5(b)(2)(C).
A covered lobbyist may not be employed under, or receive compensation in connection with, an arrangement in which compensation paid to the covered lobbyist is contingent on the result of lobbying activities engaged in by the covered lobbyist. Any person who knowingly violates this section shall be fined not more than $200,000, imprisoned for not more than 5 years, or both, and any compensation received for engaging in the unlawful activity shall be subject to disgorgement. .
