Modifies provisions for public protest and false imprisonment
Referred: Emerging Issues(H)
Summary
The measure would make assembly protesters give way to motor vehicles on roadways and to pedestrians on sidewalks, unless a special permit closes the road. It also adds new definitions for several types of lobbyists, including a "general lobbyist" who is paid to take part in a protest and a "general lobbyist principal" who pays them, and clarifies what counts as an expenditure. The changes are intended to regulate protest conduct and clarify lobbying activities.
