Source: quarterly LD-2 lobbying reports filed under the Lobbying Disclosure Act. A member is linked only where the filing names them unambiguously; positions naming an agency, a committee or a surname shared by several members are shown as filed but not linked. Moving from government to lobbying is lawful and disclosed, which is why it is possible to count it here at all.
