House Study Bill 93 (HSB93) is a resolution proposed during Iowa's 91st General Assembly to establish joint rules for lobbyists interacting with both the Senate and House of Representatives. The bill defines key terms such as 'client,' 'gift,' 'honorarium,' 'immediate family member,' and 'lobbyist' as per Chapter 68B of the Iowa Code. It aims to standardize the conduct and reporting requirements for lobbyists across both legislative chambers. After its introduction, HSB93 was renumbered as House Concurrent Resolution 4 (HCR4) following committee approval.
The bill's progression through the legislative process, including its approval by the House Committee on Ethics with a unanimous vote, indicates bipartisan support for establishing clear and consistent rules governing lobbyist activities in Iowa's legislature.
