lobbying reform

Lobbying reform involves changes to laws and regulations to increase transparency and accountability in how interest groups and individuals influence government decisions. It typically aims to require more detailed reporting of lobbying activities, limit certain types of lobbying practices, and close loopholes that allow undue influence. The goal is to ensure that policymakers make decisions based on public interest rather than undisclosed or improper influence, fostering greater trust in government processes. These reforms help balance the power of various interests and promote a fairer, more transparent policymaking environment.
