I would like to consult with a lobbyist, hopefully pro bono or reduced fee. I want to get a feel for how we can get the attention of Congress so they can properly respond to the ME situation.
I don't have much money, but if this is an effective route, and I think it would be, I would consider asking my parents for an 'advance' on some of my inheritance to devote to this. I have no idea how much would be needed, and how much would be available to me, if anything. If I did this, I would need it to be a group effort; that is, I would need others to contribute too. I would do this by matching contributions of anyone else.
Anyway, does anyone have any connections to a lobbyist with whom I might consult about this topic?
(I'm thinking I might need to get 501c3 tax-exempt status for my little org or act under the aegis of another org in order to get pro bono or reduced-fee services)
