Lobbyists are professionals who are paid to influence government decisions on behalf of clients, using expertise, relationships, and knowledge of the political process.
Lobbyists provide specialized information to policymakers but can also create unequal access based on financial resources.
Lobbyists aren't just former officials—they include policy experts, lawyers, and communication specialists.
