Small Business Majority's Federal Lobbying Record

Small Business Majority's $1.3M in disclosed federal lobbying puts it in the mid-tier of registered filers. Spending in the seven-figure range is common for established trade groups, mid-size corporations, and advocacy organizations that maintain a steady but not aggressive presence on Capitol Hill.

Across the 5-year window from 2020 to 2024, Small Business Majority's annual disclosed lobbying spend has held roughly steady — $259K at the start versus $252K at the most recent year-end. Year-to-year wobbles inside that range usually reflect timing of legislative cycles rather than a strategic shift.

Small Business Majority's disclosed lobbying focuses on a narrow 3-issue footprint. A focused issue list usually means the organization concentrates its federal engagement on a small set of bills or rulemakings directly relevant to its core business.

Of the 2 lobbyists named in Small Business Majority's recent filings, none disclose prior federal government service. The "revolving door" indicator captures only positions explicitly reported on the LDA cover sheet, so the figure can understate ties to former officials.

Within the Trade Association sector, Small Business Majority ranks #109 of 114 tracked organizations by disclosed lobbying spend. The sector leader is US Chamber of Commerce at $387.8M; the sector average is $9.5M. Small Business Majority's $1.3M sits 87% below the sector average.

Small Business Majority's LobbySpend Influence Score of 36/100 (grade D) places it in the lower tier of registered filers. The grade does not imply anything about effectiveness or intent — it simply reflects that disclosed spend, issue breadth, and revolving-door staffing are all below the index median. Many D-grade filers are issue-specific or coalition-based and rely on indirect advocacy through trade groups.

Every figure above is sourced from Senate lobbying disclosure filings submitted under the Lobbying Disclosure Act of 1995. Per-issue dollar splits and covered-position flags are filer-reported and may be amended after initial submission.
