Under Senate Lobbying Disclosure Act code CAW, 65 organizations reported federal lobbying activity on Clean Air and Water (quality) across the 2023-2024 reporting period, with combined expenditures of $894K.

AEROJET ROCKETDYNE, INC leads all filers on this issue with $390K in tracked lobbying expenditures, and the top 10 reporting organizations — including AEROJET ROCKETDYNE, INC, ENERGY MARKETERS OF AMERICA, LARGE PUBLIC POWER COUNCIL — typically account for a disproportionate share of total outlays, a concentration pattern that repeats across most LDA issue codes. Each of these organizations files quarterly LD-2 disclosures naming the lobbyists deployed and the chambers of Congress or executive agencies contacted.

The 65 filers tracked here represent a structured picture of who is paying to be heard on Clean Air and Water (quality) — useful context when evaluating hearings, committee markups, and rulemaking on related topics. Because LDA filings are a public-record trailing indicator, spending in the 2023-2024 window reflects priorities that will continue to ripple through the 118th and 119th Congresses before any policy outcomes register in the data.
