Influence
Explanation:
A lot of lobbyists work for major companies with millions to spend. The cartoon is saying that lobbyists essentially run Washington. Most legislature written today was influenced by interest groups. Or at least they are quoted in the legislation. So to cap off, lobbyists and interest groups are a major force in Washington to see if certain legislation is passed or doesn't get passed (i.e. the NRA after the Vegas shooting). I do agree with it because lobbyists do have too much influence over our government.
