I got a better one. It was the lobbyists who fought for five years to enact the World Trade Center 9/11 Health Compensation Fund. It took FIVE years for congress to make that happen and no one was lobbying on behalf of the first responders.
It is a positive example but in a way it proves the opposite point doesn’t it? That a worthy cause got overlooked for 5 years because the lobbyists weren’t rich enough to buy their way more quickly…
