A lobbyist is a person who is paid to influence legislation as well as public opinion. Most major corporations and political
interest groups hire professional lobbyists to promote their interests as intermediaries. Lobbying is in many countries a
regulated activity, with limits placed on how it is conducted, in an attempt to prevent political corruption. Lobbyists must
be registered unless they represent an elected official, or an organization of elected officials, such as the National Governors
Association.
