"does not mean to be pushy but he has to know before the meeting with the president if he can count on you for $16,000."

Example: Construction Waste
A state proposed allowing builders to bury solid waste on the construction site, with appropriate inspection by the cities.
The lobbyist representing disposal companies had to decide what to do.
First, he contacted environmentalist groups.

The Strange Coalition Environmentalists were strong in the
West. They supported scrubbers and opposed Western mining.
Eastern coal companies and the United Mineworkers union found allies in the Sierra Club.

The Inside and Outside Games The “Inside Game”: contact officials
directly
The “Outside Game”: get other people to contact officials: Grassroots: get your members and friends to
write letters Astroturf: hire a lobbying firm to create real
or simulated grassroots support Grass-tops: get your members who already
have ties to the officials to contact them

Example: The New Jersey Cable TV Ass.
A $39 million tax on cable TV was proposed. The NJCTA killed it by sending a packet to each member company suggesting:
A 30-second public-service ad from NJCTA Letters to newspapers (with a sample for them) Ask employees to write to legislators Letters to legislators from the general manager Give antitax postcards to subscribers and
employees (150,000 were mailed in, which the NJCTA sorted and delivered to legislators)
An antitax phone message for customers on hold

Campaign Contributions: Can You Buy a Congressman? “Money buys access, not action”.
Contributions are part of informational lobbying
In client politics, a contribution may make a direct difference
Contributions help elect people with positions you like--but, free rider problem

Soft Money and Hard Money
http://www.opensecrets.org/basics/law/index.asp
Corporations cannot donate directly to candidates
Before 2002, corporations, unions, and individuals could donate unlimited amounts for “party-building”
1999-2000, the national parties raised $495M in soft money, 2/3 from 800 donors of $120,000+
Soft money was banned in 2002

People who help raise money matter
171,000 people contributed to George W. Bush’s 2000 presidential campaign.
Bush had 150+ “Pioneers”, who each committed to raise at least $100,000-- e.g., $1,000 each from 100 people.
Obviously, he would be grateful to the Pioneers and listen to them in staffing the new administration.
