An on-the-fly analysis by the Sunlight Foundation shows that 84 lobbyists who represent a combined 266 health care and medical association interests have hosted a total of 61 fundraisers--that we know about--benefiting the campaigns of 18 of the approximately 40 Congressional leaders in attendance at today's health care summit.
That's not including fundraisers hosted by the companies' and trade groups' PACs themselves, though they also host such events. Maybe these lobbyists just wanted to make sure these lawmakers had enough funds to pay their monthly premiums?
Here's the list, compiled by matching host names from PoliticalPartytime.org with the Center for Responsive Politics' database of lobbyists and their clients (which the Center categorizes by industry, letting us limit to those groups with an interest in health care). It's organized by the beneficiaries of fundraisers, then lists healthcare lobbyists who hosted those fundraisers, followed by links to the invitations to those events. In parentheses are the lobbyists' health-focused clients.
