Sen. Elizabeth Warren has threatened to end corporate lobbying as we know it, but she has been far from hostile with lobbyists as a Massachusetts senator
"As the senior senator from Massachusetts, Senator Warren and her staff are respectful to plenty of people she disagrees with, but there is no one fighting harder to break the stranglehold of big money on Washington than Senator Warren,” a spokeswoman for Warren’s Senate office said in a statement, citing legislation Warren has proposed to “end lobbying as we know it.”
“It was hard to get in to see the Obama people,” he said. “It will be 10 times harder to deal with her.” Joe Biden also proposed banning foreign governments from lobbying as part of a set of proposals to rein in lobbyists’ influence. His plan also mandates much more extensive disclosure of lobbyists’ interactions with lawmakers and administration officials.
Nicholas Stephanopoulos, a University of Chicago law professor, wrote in a letter to Warren on Tuesday that there were “strong arguments” that her proposal to ban lobbyists from making campaign contributions is constitutional.
