Sure..they can de-register as a lobbyist..and give up their livelihood and income...for a non-paying position on an advisory committee.
This is a "good government" program by any measure.
Will it prevent influence peddling? Certainly not.
Does it provide more transparency and less influence peddling. Absolutely...by a wide margin over previous administrations, D or R.
