Information maintained by the Legislative
Reference Bureau
Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process.
Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public
Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the
Guide.
Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes,
statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect.
If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has
not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already
been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes
made to the current law.

(5 ILCS 420/2-101) (from Ch. 127, par. 602-101)
Sec. 2-101. Government official lobbying. (a) No legislator may engage in promoting or opposing in any manner the passage by the General Assembly of any legislative matter affecting the interests of any individual, association, or corporation as distinct from those of the people of the State as a whole, if he or she accepts compensation specifically attributable
to such lobbying, other than that provided by law for members of the
General Assembly. Nothing in this Section prohibits a legislator from
lobbying without compensation.

(c) No elected or appointed municipal executive or legislative official shall engage in compensated lobbying of the governing body of a county, municipality, township, the General Assembly, a State executive branch office or agency, or an official thereof, on behalf of any lobbyist or lobbying entity that is registered to lobby the municipality in which the official is elected or appointed. (d) No elected or appointed township executive or legislative official shall engage in compensated lobbying of the governing body of a county, municipality, township, the General Assembly, a State executive branch office or agency, or an official thereof, on behalf of any lobbyist or lobbying entity that is registered to lobby the township in which the official is elected or appointed. (e) No elected or appointed municipal executive or legislative official shall engage in compensated lobbying of the governing body of a county, municipality, or township, the General Assembly, a State executive branch office or agency, or an official thereof, on behalf of any lobbyist or lobbying entity if the person is an elected or appointed municipal executive or legislative official from a municipality exempted by the preemption provision of Section 11.2 of the Lobbyist Registration Act. (f) A violation of this Section shall constitute a Class A misdemeanor.
