This is a Lobbying Certification exhibit required by the Texas Department of Agriculture for contracts, grants, and cooperative agreements involving Federal appropriated funds. The certification document establishes the legal framework and requirements for all parties entering into Federal funding agreements with the state of Texas, ensuring compliance with federal lobbying restrictions and disclosure requirements.
The certification requires the undersigned to attest that no Federal appropriated funds have been or will be used to influence members of Congress or federal agency employees in connection with the award or modification of Federal contracts, grants, loans, or cooperative agreements. If non-Federal funds are used for lobbying purposes, the contractor must complete and submit Standard Form-LLL, Disclosure Form to Report Lobbying. The certification must be included in all sub-award documents at every tier, including sub-contracts and sub-grants, with corresponding certifications and disclosures from all sub-recipients. Failure to file the required certification subjects the non-compliant party to civil penalties ranging from $10,000 to $100,000 for each violation. The document requires signatures from an authorized signatory and the Chief Financial Officer or designee, with the certification serving as a material representation of fact and a prerequisite for transaction execution under 31 U.S. Code Section 1352.
