Three More Agencies Begin Posting Recovery Act Lobbying Contacts

by

Three more agencies have begun posting, or provided a place to post, communications between lobbyists and agency officials in regards to funds distributed from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA). Last week, there were eight agencies posting lobbyist communications, as required under the March 20 memorandum issued by President Obama to all agencies involved with the distribution of Recovery Act funds.

The new agencies posting are the Department of Commerce, the Environmental Protection Agency, and the United States Department of Agriculture. The United States Department of Agriculture has yet to post any communications, but has created a page on which to post them.
