| Description | TALLAHASSEE — Attorney General Bill McCollum — who was a high-priced Washington lobbyist in-between his bids for statewide office in Florida — may be returning to the ranks of the well-heeled ear-bending crowd.
Just over a week after losing his Republican gubernatorial primary to Rick Scott, McCollum asked the Florida Commission on Ethics for an opinion as to whether he would be barred from lobbying the Florida Cabinet after he left office.
Florida’s ethics laws prevent former public officeholders from lobbying their own former agency or other “government body” for two years after leaving office, and the Attorney General is one vote out of four on the Cabinet overseeing a host of state agencies.
