How much, if any, has your company directly or indirectly spent on lobbying the United States Congress?

Hi sorry, I stepped away. In general, I view lobbying as a negative although I recognize that there are lobbying efforts that I would characterize as good because I agree with their goals. I would love to know what specific issues you plan to lobby for.

Like so many other facets of our society, lobbying has been manipulated and perverted by corporations and big money interests toward goals that are not beneficial to the American public. However, I believe there are more fundamental issues that could be addressed, such as campaign finance reform, that would alleviate much of the negativity surrounding lobby groups and bring back some of the integrity our system has lost.

I mean we can't even raise the minimum wage in what, 30 years? No, healthcare, no childcare, rising food/gas/home prices, voting under attack by the GOP, the environment is disintegrating, gun violence out of control, but I guess a 4-day workweek is a priority??????? Most working-class ppl couldn't afford to live if their hours were cut, and if you think employers are going to raise wages to compensate then you have not been living in America for the last 20 years. Why not go after one of those other issues?
