Interest groups have been known to use a key weapon to influence the lawmaking in the legislation and state officials’ decisions in the executive branch. This key weapon are people that are good at persuading and are known as lobbyists in the political world. The most famous and outright interest group in the United States is known by the acronym of NRA-short for National Rifle Association, this group defends the second amendment of the constitution:the right to bear arms. There are also other influential interest groups such as PETA, NEA, NAACP etc.
I believe there should be more strict oversight on interest groups as to how they are presenting the voice of the people in order to better the community rather than take advantage of their power
