Roughly how many former memberes of Congress and staffers serving as lobbyists were involved in the health care reform debate in 2009
I really do not have even a rough number to give you. I suggest that your text materials have such a number, or it's been covered in your class. It was quite a (relatively) high number, but I don't have access to it.
To find the approximate number of former members of Congress and staffers who were involved in the health care reform debate in 2009, you can follow these steps:
1. Start by researching historical sources, news articles, and reports related to the health care reform debate during that time. Look for information about lobbyists and their backgrounds.
2. Identify the names of former members of Congress and staffers who took part in the debate. Make a list or take note of these individuals.
3. Search for information regarding the number of former members of Congress and staffers who became lobbyists either during or after their tenure in public service. Various online platforms and databases can be helpful in this research. Specialized websites focused on government transparency and lobbying activities might also provide data on individuals transitioning from Congress to lobbying positions.
4. Compile the information you gathered and count the number of former members of Congress and staffers who were involved in the health care reform debate. Keep in mind that the exact number may not be readily available, but you can make an estimate based on your research.
It's important to note that while these steps can guide you towards finding an approximate number, the accuracy of the estimate depends on the available information and sources.
