Lobbyists Quitting

A record number of lobbyists in Washington, D.C. have left the business this year, according to a new study released today.

In the months after President Obama issued an executive order creating new restrictions on former lobbyists, about 1,400 of them -- or 8% of the industry -- left during the second quarter of 2009. Typically, only a few hundred lobbyists leave the business every quarter.
