lobbying disclosure

Lobbying disclosure involves officially reporting activities by individuals or organizations that try to influence government decision-making. It requires lobbyists to reveal details such as whom they met with, which issues they discussed, and how much money they spent. This transparency helps ensure accountability, allowing the public and officials to understand who is advocating for certain policies and how influence is being exerted. Essentially, it’s a way to track and make public the efforts behind political advocacy, promoting openness in the legislative process.
