Lobbying: 19 filings cite this bill

Filings whose specific-issues text cites the bill, as the filers typed it ("H.R. 4593", "H.R.4593", "HR 4593"). 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

Money facing this bill

A giver's face is the list of subjects its organization lobbies Congress on, read from its own lobbying reports and spread by how often each subject comes up; a gift from someone who works there is spread the same way.

from individual donors whose organizations lobby on Energy, the bill's policy area, reached the 3 members who sponsor or cosponsor it, in the 2026 cycle, more than 37% of Energy bills. From PACs whose sponsors lobby on it: $123k, 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.
