Quick, what/who do you think is the biggest (by dollars spent) lobbying organization in the United States? I'll bet you didn't think of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, did you?? Howsabout $94.8 million spent by those proponents of American free enterprise to sway congressional opinion and action?? As a matter of fact, the C of C was a primary presenter of a 'friend of the court' memo in the DACA case before the Supreme Court last week (the organization strongly supports the 'Dreamer' program, with good reasoning).

Who's in second place in the dollar race in Washington? Would you believe the National Association of Realtors ringing up $72.8 million in lunches, dinners, snacks, swag and 'favors' (should I say quid pro quo?) for our esteemed legislators. Third place? The 'Open Society Policy Center', a progressive organization tied to George Soros.
