Minnesota HF2105 amends lobbyist registration definitions and exempts certain confidential communications from disclosure.

Minnesota HF2105 amends the definitions related to lobbying and lobbyist registration. It specifies that a lobbyist is not required to register if their work does not include lobbying or if they are providing factual information or professional recommendations based on their expertise. The bill also exempts certain confidential or privileged communications from disclosure requirements, such as those protected by attorney-client privilege or professional confidentiality obligations. This means licensed professionals do not have to report communications that would violate these obligations.
