Our recommendation to return it to the status quo, essentially, of 32 hours is partly to ensure that small organizations like small businesses that need to go to elected officials to talk about specific issues aren't captured as lawbreakers in that situation. They aren't professional lobbyists.
Professional lobbyists like me are abiding by the law. This is our day-to-day job. Our recommendation is to make sure the system targets the people who are actively lobbying, not those seeking help from local officials who don't have the resources to track everything and who are simply asking for help. They are not looking to fundamentally change government policy.
