Honeywell International

At $14.9M in disclosed federal lobbying, Honeywell International ranks as a major spender — well above the typical filer. Outlays in this range generally reflect a sustained presence in Washington, with at least one full-time government affairs lead and a stable of outside lobbyists engaged on the organization's priority issues.

Across the 5-year window from 2020 to 2024, Honeywell International's annual disclosed lobbying spend has held roughly steady — $2.9M at the start versus $2.9M at the most recent year-end. Year-to-year wobbles inside that range usually reflect timing of legislative cycles rather than a strategic shift.

Honeywell International's disclosed lobbying covers 6 general issue areas — a moderate footprint. Filers in this range tend to engage on a coherent cluster of related topics rather than spreading effort across the federal agenda.

4 of 10 lobbyists reported by Honeywell International (40%) disclose prior federal government service. That share is common at established government affairs operations that explicitly hire from agency and committee staff.

Griffin (Former Deputy Assistant Secretary, HHS). The covered-position field on LDA cover sheets captures executive-branch and senior congressional roles held within the prior two years.

Honeywell International's LobbySpend Influence Score of 63/100 (grade B) reflects significant federal lobbying reach. The score blends disclosed total spend, issue breadth, and revolving-door connections — lobbyists with prior federal government service. A B-grade typically means the organization is well above average on at least two of those three signals, with sustained activity over multiple years rather than a one-off spike.
