LobbyingWhat does its sponsor lobby on?

What Great Plains Institute - Industrial Innovation Initiative lobbies on 2026 reports

Besides giving through its PAC, Great Plains Institute - Industrial Innovation Initiative pays lobbyists to press Congress and federal agencies. Each quarter it, or a firm it hires, files a public report under the Lobbying Disclosure Act saying which topics it worked on, what it spent, and whom it contacted. This is what those reports say.

Spent on lobbying in 2026: $100K
Quarterly reports read: 11
Bills it named: 1

Topics it lobbied on

Each report files its work under official topics. The bar shows how often each topic came up across the reports; open one to read what was filed under it. Naming a bill says the organization lobbied on it, not which side it took.
