National Journal's Under the Influence

Thursday, May 28, 2009 1:58 PM

Health care reform is being teed up on Capitol Hill, so the Sunlight Foundation's Party Time blog has started keeping track of fundraisers for lawmakers hosted by health care lobbyists. Among the events they found were fundraisers with lobbyists representing companies such as Eli Lilly and Johnson & Johnson as well as such trade associations as the American Hospital Association.

Party Time has identified at least 124 fundraising events in 2009 for members of the House Ways and Means Committee, which will be considering options to pay for health care reform.

Most invitations do not contain information about hosts or who might be attending. However, those that do, provide an interesting glimpse of what the guest lists are like at these private events.
