Karas: The goals of lobbying laws should be full disclosure: lobbyists should register (for a period of longer than one year, or every year), monitor and report their meetings, and eliminate any gift giving. PA should lead the country with these reforms, we have been followers too long. It has been reported that PA is last in diclosure laws. We should be first. Legislative members should: 1) not be allowed to vote if there is a conflict of interest with themselves or any relative, 3) minutes of all lobbyists meetings should be kept by both parties and be available in public record.
