Liberal billionaire George Soros's nonprofit spent more on lobbying during the second quarter of 2018 than he has in any previous quarter, disclosure forms show.
The Open Society Policy Center, a Washington, D.C.-based 501(c)(4) nonprofit that deals with domestic and international advocacy efforts that is a separate entity from Soros's Open Society Foundations, reported spending $10.37 million between April 1 and June 30-an increase of nearly $8 million from the first quarter of the year when the center reported spending $2.52 million on its lobbying efforts.
The $10.37 million Soros's Open Society Policy Center put towards lobbying during the second quarter of this year is slightly more than its previous high of $10.3 million from the fourth quarter of last year, which runs from Oct. 1 to Dec. 31.
Soros's lobbying arm spent more during Trump's first year in office than it had any previous year.
Soros's lobbying budget shot up to $11 million in 2013.
The most Soros had spent prior to last was $12.4 million in 2014.
Soros has spent $12.89 million during the first half of 2018, which could ultimately end up as another record year for the financier's lobbying activities.
