Textile Lobbyists Spent $3.2 Million in Campaigns
A coalition of textile and apparel interests spent over $3.2 million lobbying the 99th Congress to curb imports. The effort, one of the era’s costliest Capitol Hill campaigns, ended in defeat when Reagan veto override failed. 1985 filings show $2 million spent in 1985 and $1.2 million later in 1986 on PR, consultants, and lawyers.
