No, I don't think so. As I said, for something that has a relatively simple intent, this act has twists and turns.
If somebody is hired by a firm and is an employee of the firm, not under contract but an employee of the firm--and here's another trigger under the act. If it's a commercial corporation and the entire lobbying effort of the firm is more than 20% of one person's time, even if that's accumulated--if they have 20 people who are doing this activity and each one of them is doing it 1% of their time--that triggers the requirement for that company to register. The CEO or the senior person in the organization has to register everyone; he registers, and then on his or her registration they list everyone in the organization who is doing more than 20% of their time lobbying.
