Lobbyists
Please respond to the following discussion topic and submit them to the discussion forum as a
single post. Your initial post should be 75-150 words in length.
About half of the paid lobbyists in Washington are former government staff members or
former members of Congress. Why would interest groups employ such people? Why might
some reformers want to limit the ability of interest groups to employ them? On what basis
might an interest group argue that such limits are unconstitutional?
