American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network ⚑ research lead
655 15th Street, NW, Suite 503, Washington 20005
No matching record in Nevada's campaign-finance dataset
This client is registered with the Nevada Legislature as employing a lobbyist for the 83rd Session, but its name does not appear (yet) in the deduplicated NV Secretary of State campaign-finance dataset under this exact form. That can mean: it doesn't make political contributions in Nevada, it gives under a related entity name, it gives only at the federal level, or its name is recorded with different punctuation in the SOS dataset.
If you can identify the parent or affiliated entity, the SecureDrop on /tips is the safest channel.
2 detector finding(s) on file
Each finding is reproducible from public records and represents a research lead, not a published claim. See methodology and auditor portfolio for what we look for.
Multi-feature outlier on the client side (Isolation Forest score -0.043).
Client testified on 4 bills but contributed only $0 to NV PACs/candidates. Either issue-advocacy access or money flow happens off-state-record.
Also lobbies the U.S. Congress
This client also appears in the U.S. Senate's Lobbying Disclosure Act (LDA) database — the public registry of lobbying activity directed at federal agencies and Congress, filed under the Lobbying Disclosure Act of 1995. Federal lobbying is a separate jurisdiction from Nevada state lobbying, but both flows from the same entity tell a fuller picture of how its political resources are deployed. 12 federal registrants on file, 12 federal filings matched.
