REGISTERED AGENTS HIRED BY FOREIGN ENTITIES TO INFLUENCE U.S. POLICY

The Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) requires that all American citizens working to influence U.S. policy on behalf of foreign governments register with the Department of Justice and to disclose information on any and all political activity in which they engaged for foreign clients. This includes filing, within 48 hours, any informational materials disseminated to two or more people.

The foreign influence industry in the United States is thriving. Foreign interests—which are called foreign principals—include foreign governments, “political parties, persons or organizations outside the United States, except U.S. citizens, and any entity organized under the laws of a foreign country or having its principal place of business in a foreign country. Currently foreign principals employ more than 1,000 American lobbyists and spend nearly half a billion dollars annually trying to influence U.S. policymaking and public opinion

The rules for lobbyists representing foreign interests differ from those for lobbyists representing domestic interests in an important way: FARA’s disclosure requirements require a significantly higher level of detail such as: The materials they distribute to the targets of their lobbying, Copies of their contracts with their foreign clients, Semiannual “Supplemental Statements” which contain, among many other things, any political contributions they’ve made

However, there are also major gaps in the FARA requirements. The Supplemental Statements do not require registrants to provide the names of the recipients of informational materials or the dates the materials were sent. The registrants are also not explicitly required to provide specific information about their meetings or contacts with policymakers, such as who they met with or what they discussed, though some registrants choose to provide these details
