How much of this bill its name accounts for.

  • Every bill starts at100
  • Nothing counted against it: one area of law, and short enough that length doesn't register.

Face Value measures reach, not honesty. A big bill can be accurately named, and a low score is not an accusation — it means the contents reach further than any short title could describe. Count it yourself ↗ How this is worked out

Who lobbied on this

2 organizations

These organizations told Congress, in their own quarterly disclosures, that they were lobbying on this bill.

  • Bank Policy Instituteno position stated
    “…and Comprehensive Capital Analysis & Review (CCAR). S.2251, Federal Information Security Modernization Act of 2023-2024…” filing ↗
  • Human Rights Campaignno position stated
    “…S. 2702: Empower Parents to Protect their Kids Act of 2025 S. 2251: Say No to Indoctrination Act H.R.…” filing ↗

Most filings say only that an organization lobbied on a bill, not which side it took — where that's the case we say so rather than guessing. Quotes are verbatim from the filing. How this is built.
