SACRAMENTO Gov. Gavin Newsom introduced a lobbying ban for his paid political advisers, after weeks of criticism over his close ties to consultants who also work for corporate clients and other influential interests at the state Capitol.
In a memo shared by the governor’s office, Newsom’s chief of staff, Ann O’Leary, announced a new ethics policy Friday barring any of his paid campaign or political consultants from directly lobbying the governor, his staff or state agencies under his control. Newsom also committed to not hiring any registered lobbyists as paid consultants.
