Lobbyist Insight

Ohio · May-Aug11 – Sep-Dec17

John E. Barnes Jr.

Identified in the Open States roster as Democratic, House, district 12.

Named as receiving meals, gifts, travel or entertainment in 8 lobbying expenditure filings, from 5 different organisations or lobbyists.

Disclosed value of the items naming them: $901.

What this is and is not. These are items that lobbyists and their employers reported spending, naming this person as a recipient. The filings themselves never say whether a named person is a legislator, a member of staff, a family member or a guest at the same event — Texas codes every one of them "INDIVIDUAL" — so any role shown above comes from matching the name against a published roster, and its absence means only that no match was found. Nothing here is a payment to them.
