Why It Matters

The Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights (LCCHR) lobbied on consideration of technology policy, including AI, facial recognition, privacy and data use, Consumer Financial Protection Bureau policy and oversight, 2030 Census preparations, and support for S. 3779; ICE Out of Our Faces Act during the 2026 second quarter period.

By the Numbers

The LCCHR reported $220,000 in in-house lobbying spending for the second quarter of 2026, down from $240,000 in the first quarter. The organization has filed four quarterly in-house lobbying reports over the past year, totaling $1.16 million in spending. Five core in-house lobbyists drove the effort: Jonathan Walter, Meeta Anand, Maya Wiley, Frank Torres III, and Rahul S. Randhava. Randhava has prior Capitol Hill experience, having served in the personal office of former Rep. Barney Frank (D-MA).

The Agenda

The organization supported S. 1750 and H.R. 3470, the Keeping All Students Safe Act, and backed fair housing enforcement funding in appropriations. Census preparation also remained a focus, as did oversight of data sharing between Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the Internal Revenue Service.
