SummarySince the United States' foundation, the people have constitutionally been granted the right to assemble and express themselves freely. The most effective assemblies over time have become the active voices of the people, pursuing fair legislation when deemed necessary through the lobbying of congressmen, senators and other members of government. It is democracy in action, and it can be an arduous process with a long and gradual learning curve. Lobbying is a form of education with its own distinct set of defined skills within the parameters of broader teaching techniques. Utilizing theories of communication and literacy, complex dialogue between lobbyist and legislator, and strategic explanation of data, a lobbyist's goal is to bring the legislator to the logical, educated conclusion that a certain issue-at-hand must be acted upon for the public good.
