Lobbying is: an attempt by an individual or group to influence the passage of legislation by exerting indirect pressure, through phone calls or emails, on members of Congress or a state legislature.

False

Explanation:

The reason I said this is false is because lobbying does not place indirect pressure. The pressure it places on the members of the legislature is direct. It is when lobbyists are trying to influence the legislature by exerting pressure on the legislative methods through different channels of communication.

So this statement should be rewritten as;
