I double checked -- another source[0] mentions amounts that are a bit higher: "The Chamber [of Commerce] spent nearly $82 million on lobbying in 2020" But generally in line with the list posted by the GP: "Facebook and Amazon were the only companies in the top 10 spending list and spent nearly $19.7 million and more than $18.7 million on lobbying in 2020, respectively" I too, am surprised as how little this is for these gigantic companies ($20M for FB? 1/1000th of their quarterly revenue?) and more generally, how little money this is... in comparison with the entire US government budget? Sorry, this is probably all obvious? Just a bit.. sad?
