Staffers do have dealings with lobbyists, but they are not allowed to vote on bills.
Congress is most influenced by lobbyists. The lobbyists write bills for the members of congress so the people they work for are protected or provided for in bills. Lobbyists also give free gifts, memberships, dinners, trips, and tickets to congress to influence their votes.
They help interest groups with their ideas and get laws changed to their benefit.
They use a number of different methods to promote the action they seek. They argue in support of bills they favor and against bills they oppose. They place adds in the mass media, promise to help government officials. Lobbyists sometimes urge local groups and individuals to send letters to public officials.
Lobbyists are controversial because some of their methods appear rather shady. Lobbyists receive lots of money in some situations, and they pressure legislatures to pass bills that favor their cause. Some argue that lobbyists do not care about the causes, they are in it for the money.
d) Members of Congress are permitted to draft a bill. The legislative branch of the government, which consists of the House of Representatives and the Senate, is responsible for introducing and drafting bills. Lobbyists and the president can influence the content and support of a bill, but they do not have the authority to directly draft bills. The public can also suggest ideas for bills to their elected representatives, but again, the actual drafting is done by members of Congress.
no
They visit offices, help write bills, have parties for the members, give gifts of various sorts (this is illegal ) and apply pressure.
We, the voting public, should be blamed for one. There is no term limit for senators and congressmen. As long as we vote them in, they can keep passing bills that favour the interests of lobbyists, big industry, oil and pharmaceutical companies, instead of the issues their constituents put them there for. We should be blamed, people, humans. Its human nature to manipulate what you can to come out on top. Its survival of the fittest, you just survive in a business suit and plastic smile.

The same instrument cannot be Real for one person and personal for another. Hence, in my opinion Bills payable is also a real account.
