Who lobbied on this bill
Confirmed from the official record1 lobbying report name H.R. 1684, for 1 client.
| Client | Registrant | Amount for the whole quarter | Lobbyists named for this issue | Filed | Report |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| AMERICAN VETERINARY MEDICAL ASSOCIATION | AMERICAN VETERINARY MEDICAL ASSOCIATIONSecond quarter of 2026 | $214,422reported as expenses |
| Open the report |
A lobbying report states the registrant's income from the client (a lobbying firm) or its own lobbying expenses (an organization lobbying for itself), for the whole quarter and every issue together, rounded to the nearest $10,000. A report under $5,000 states no figure. It is not the amount spent on one bill.
Reports read: 0 of 1 quarters read in full (2026-Q2). With no registered key the service allows 15 requests a minute, so this covers the latest quarter only. With a key it covers four.
Senate Office of Public Records cannot vouch for the data or analyses derived from these data after the data have been retrieved from LDA.gov.

Contribution reports are read for 9 of the 208 sponsors and cosponsors so far.
Lobbyists and registrants report their political contributions twice a year (form LD-203). A contribution is listed here when the report was filed by a lobbyist named on this bill's lobbying reports or by a registrant that filed one of them, and its payee is the member's own committee as the FEC lists it, under the exact-name rule. The contribution's date is as reported and can fall before or after the lobbying.
