U.S. Government Explained Ep. 13 - Interest Groups & Lobbying


Listen Later

In this episode of U.S. Government Explained, we look at how interest groups and lobbying shape American politics between elections.

We’ll explain what interest groups are, what lobbying really means, and how organized groups influence laws, government agencies, and court decisions. Using a real historical example, we’ll show how advocacy works in practice — including how groups interact with lawmakers, use the courts, and work with the media to support policy change.

This episode helps explain why voting alone does not determine government outcomes, and how ongoing participation plays a major role in the U.S. political system.
