This January 2019 edition of A Guide to Political and Lobbying Activities (the “Guide”) includes updates to reflect an increased scrutiny of representation of foreign governments, corporations, and other entities in the United States and the possibility of additional legislative reforms in this area. It also includes analysis and guidance – limited as it may be due to a still unfolding case – regarding disclosure of certain politically-related contributions to 501(c)(4) tax-exempt entities and possibly other entities as a result of the CREW v. FEC case that was decided in September 2018.
