Summary

Corporate lobbyists are everywhere in Washington. Of the 100 organisations that spend the most on lobbying, 95 represent business. The largest companies now have upwards of 100 lobbyists representing them. How did American businesses become so invested in politics? And what does all their money buy? Drawing on extensive data and original interviews with corporate lobbyists, 'The Business of America is Lobbying' provides a fascinating and detailed picture of what corporations do in Washington, why they do it, and why it matters
