chosen: Lobbying is the process of exerting influence over legislation and other government policies through personal contact with decision-makers and their staff, typically by representing the interests of a special-interest group or organization. The legislative process in the US involves three stages - introducing a bill, debating it in the House of Representatives and the Senate, and resolving the differences in the versions of the bill passed in each chamber in a conference committee. Lobbyists work at all three stages of the legislative process, by contacting congressional staff members, giving seminars to educate members on particular issue areas and providing information to the members to influence their vote. Through lobbying, organizations are able to increase public awareness and gain legislative sponsorship, while individuals use it to bring their specific personal stories before lawmakers.
