Illinois’ Lobbyist Registration Act was significantly amended effective January 1, 2022.

This guide has been updated to reflect such amendments, but as of the date of this publication not all guidance resources put out by Illinois state and local officials have been updated to reflect the amendments. We will continue to update this resource as practicable.
