The first Amendment to the U.S. Constitution gives citizens the right to "petition the government for the redress (setting right) of grievances." It does not say that the government must take action. That's where lobbyists and pressure groups come in.
A professional lobbyist is one who works full-time and is paid for it. He or she might work for a company (General Motors or Gulf Oil, for example) or a union (United Auto Workers; the Teamsters). Such a lobbyist might work for a professional association (the American Medical Association; the National Education Association) or a citizens'group (Common Cause; Public Citizen). Even foreign governments hire lobbyists to represent them in Washington.

Lobbying, influencing, or interest imitation is the action of endeavoring to determine the procedures, systems, or decisions of administrators in their everyday life, most often lawmakers or members of supervisory companies. Lobbying is done by pressure groups, organizations, and combined groups, which includes people in the private sector, organizations, fellow administrators or administration officials, or advocacy groups.
