from individual donors whose organizations lobby on International Affairs, the bill's policy area, reached the 3 members who sponsor or cosponsor it, in the 2020 cycle, more than 34% of International Affairs bills. From PACs whose sponsors lobby on it: $14k, counted separately.

This is money tied to the bill's subject, not money given for or against the bill. It shows what an organization lobbies on, not what position it takes, and no gift is tied to a bill.

The members it reached, and who gave it

The organizations are each member's three largest on this subject. A group of organizations is shown by name only after a person has reviewed it.
