Our Commitment to Transparency
Lobbius was created to serve the public interest, and transparency is foundational to everything we do. We believe that trust is earned through openness, consistency, and accountability, and that the people who support our work deserve to understand how their collective voice is being represented.
We are committed to operating in a manner that is honest, lawful, and visible. Lobbius does not operate behind closed doors or in secrecy. Our advocacy efforts are grounded in publicly available information, legally required disclosures, and clear communication with our members. When we engage in advocacy or lobbying activity, we do so in compliance with all applicable federal and state laws, including lobbying disclosure requirements.
Lobbius is transparent about how resources are used. Membership contributions support our core mission of public-interest advocacy, including research, education, professional representation, communications, and operational costs necessary to sustain effective engagement. We do not promise outcomes, but we do commit to using resources responsibly and in alignment with our stated purpose.
We provide members with ongoing visibility into the issues we are working on, the priorities we are advancing, and the broader policy environment in which we operate. This includes regular updates, educational content, and public reporting on advocacy efforts where appropriate. We believe informed members are empowered members.
Lobbius does not accept undisclosed funding arrangements, hidden sponsorships, or covert influence. We do not sell access to policymakers, and we do not act at the direction of corporations, political parties, or candidates. Our work is driven by the collective interests of our members and the public good.
Transparency means being open to questions, feedback, and accountability. Members and the public are encouraged to engage with us, ask questions about our work, and hold us to the standards we set for ourselves.
This commitment is not a marketing statement. It is an operating principle. Transparency is how we earn trust, protect our integrity, and ensure that Lobbius remains accountable to the people it exists to serve.
