LobbyingData.com provides real-time alternative data on American lobbying, and up to 23 years of history for more than 1.5 million U.S. lobbying contracts between corporations, organizations, and various interest groups and their lobbying firms.

LobbyingData.com offers the first and only alternative data on American lobbying. We transform complex, unstructured government information into intuitive, highly adaptable datasets. Our database includes detailed information on more than 1.5 million lobbying contracts (100% of federal lobbying contracts), 13,000 lobbying firms, 109,000 entities that have lobbied, and 77,000 unique lobbyists.

Easily drill-down on the companies that have lobbied, learn how much they spent on lobbying, view the government agencies they lobbied, and most importantly - see the bills and specific issues lobbied on.

Our database and datasets have helped a variety of customers, from equity research analysts to asset managers, answer the following questions:

1. What bills and specific issues did company X lobby on?
2. What government agencies did company X target when they lobbied?
3. How much money did company X spend on lobbying?

Our coverage can be found in our data discovery deck here: https://www.lobbyingdata.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/LobbyingData-Discovery-Deck-Plans-and-Pricing.pdf

Our data is updated for new lobbying contracts on an hourly basis (quicker updates available upon request). All publicly traded entities that have lobbied or are currently lobbying the federal government are matched to their ticker symbols. All entity names are matched across time, from 1999 - present.
