<http://www.politico.com/story/2016/06/the-lobbying-reform-that-enriched-congress-224849#ixzz4DP9rF0k4>:
“[T]he Honest Leadership and Open Government Act of 2007 [] was embraced by
both parties as a historic breakthrough….  Instead, it made things worse….
Not only did the lobbying reform bill fail to slow the revolving door, it
created an entire class of professional influencers who operate in the
shadows, out of the public eye and unaccountable.”
