Summary
The BLAST Act would make it illegal for anyone who has served as a Senator, Representative, or elected officer of either chamber to lobby Congress once they leave office. It adds former lawmakers to the definition of lobbyist and subjects violations to existing criminal penalties. The goal is to prevent former legislators from using their insider connections to influence current lawmakers.
