An organization that hires lobbyists at the Iowa Legislature (2025–26 session). Its lobbyists filed 96 positions on 42 bills, one filing per lobbyist per bill, and again on each refiling, so the two counts differ. Each bill is counted once, under the most recent position filed on it, even when the bill was renumbered mid-session ; the organization changed position on 3 bills
