Counts here are a floor, never a total: they cover the 639 consultation files tracked so far (53,766 submissions, mostly 2021–26), so an organization's real filing history is larger, not smaller.

Who they are

Among the 1474 trade and business associations on this site, they rank #784 by legislative files engaged — a count of participation, not a measure of influence.
