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. 1 federal registrant on file, 1 federal filing matched.

Source: U.S. Senate Lobbying Disclosure Act Database. Matches are tokenwise high-confidence on entity name; LDA names occasionally differ from Nevada-registered names by formatting or affiliated subsidiary, so absence here is not proof of no federal lobbying.
