MapLight launches new federal lobbying database

[Daniel Newman]

MapLight is delighted to announce the launch of its new federal lobbying database. MapLight's searchable dataset on federal lobbying is made freely available through both a Web interface and a CSV downloadable format, and provides timely information on unions, companies, and organizations that are lobbying the federal government. It includes information on how much money is being spent, which firms are being hired, which issues are being lobbied on, who is being lobbied, and more.

View the database here.

The data source for the MapLight lobbying database is the Clerk of the U.S. House of Representatives.

Best,
