Roads/Highway filing shape

Roads/Highway (ROD) averages $94K per filer, many small registrants split the tracked total.

QUALCOMM INCORPORATED leads this issue's filer table with $26.4M in all-issue lobbying; filings remain spread across 10 named organizations rather than collapsing into one registrant.

With fewer filers on Roads/Highway, each quarterly disclosure carries more weight, and a small shift in registrant count can change the visible lobbying picture quickly.
