Kimberly-Clark spent $60,000 lobbying gov’t in 2Q

WASHINGTON — Kimberly-Clark Corp. spent $60,000 in the second quarter to lobby the government on climate change, fees on medical device makers and other issues, according to a recent disclosure report.

That’s even with what it spent in the year-ago period but slightly less than the $80,000 it spent in the first quarter of 2010.

The Dallas-based maker of Kleenex tissues and Huggies diapers also lobbied on the Medicare Part D subsidy and deferral of foreign earnings in the April-through-June period. The company lobbied Congress, according to the report filed July 20 with the House clerk’s office.
