Findings

Context Lobbying · the statement

Their compensation from Towards Justice, a lobbying client with positions on 41 bills

Their disclosure lists Towards Justice as a source of compensation. Towards Justice is a client of a professional lobbyist registered with the Secretary of State, whose reports give its positions on 41 bills since 2023. The disclosure form asks for exactly these sources: ones that pay lobbyists at the General Assembly.

What to check
  • The client's positions on the bills (each bill's page lists who lobbied it), and how they voted on them.
  • Whether the organization is the same one (a name can be shared by unrelated organizations).
