Money and Power in Sacramento

Hosted by

Lobbyists outnumber legislators in Sacramento by 8 to 1. Lobbying is a growth industry.  In 1975, interest groups hiring lobbyists numbered 682; now it's 2,365. Since 1990, lobbyist spending has risen from $193 million to $550 million. Another reason that lobbyists get what they want is that they've been there a lot longer.
