Book excerpt: Excerpt from Administration of the Lobby Registration Provision of the Legislative Reorganization Act of 1946: An Analysis of Experience During the Eightieth Congress The House Select Committee on Lobbying Activities, created pursuant to House Resolution 298 of the Eighty-first Congress, was authorized and directed by the House of Representatives to investigate "all lobbying activities," including activities of agencies of the Federal Government, "intended to influence, encourage, promote, or retard legislation." Shortly after the committee was appointed by the Speaker and before it actually began its work, our attention was called to the existence of a limited-edition comprehensive report made by the Library of Congress on the Administration of the Regulation of Lobbying Act based on experience during the Eightieth Congress. Although the House Select Committee on Lobbying Activities does not at this time and prior to full investigation and hearings endorse any of the views or conclusions expressed in this Library of Congress study of the problem we are now investigating, our committee feels that this report can be useful both to us and to all Members of Congress, and for that reason we have arranged to have it made more generally available in this form.
