The president sometimes wants certain bills passed or certein bills biocked and so he contacts members of Congress and tried to persuade them to vote his way on these bills and to help push them or block them . This kind of activity is called lobbying when outsiders do it. The President may have higher motives than do ordinary lobbyists, but all lobbying is done for the same reason and that is to influence the passage of legislation.
