I’m sorry, but this is worded misleadingly. Lobbying isn’t always bad and it isn’t just trying to get a certain vote for no reason. For example, a congressperson might not know much about the operational challenges of upgrading electric transmission lines or about the science behind vaccine development. Lobbying is the vehicle for those industries to explain their point of view and (hopefully) help our congresspeople make better informed decisions. Congresspeople are typically lawyers and, no offense, but lawyers aren’t experts in anything except maybe some aspect of the law. Also, you can get lobbying meetings without making donations.
