Lobbying: 9 filings cite this bill
Filings whose specific-issues text cites the bill, as the filers typed it ("H.R. 4305", "HR 4305"). The LDA does not disclose positions on a bill (support or oppose), so none appear here; a filing is attributed to a Congress by its filing year. Counts, never dollars. ‡ lobbying estimates
