The Open Society Policy Center, an advocacy group funded by billionaire George Soros, has now pushed more than $70 million into lobbying efforts since Donald Trump took office.
A 501(c)(4) nonprofit that focuses on domestic and international advocacy, pushed $72 million into lobbying since January 2017.
Since Trump was sworn into office, the group has averaged $25 million per year in lobbying-related expenditures.
The group reported spending $15.89 million throughout the third quarter, its filings show.
OSPC has now spent $24.41 million this year, an amount that is in line with its record from last year.
Throughout 2018, the group dropped $31.5 million into lobbying and was among the top three lobbyist spenders ahead of the likes of Blue Cross/Blue Shield, Alphabet Inc., Boeing, Comcast, and Amazon, according to data from the Center for Responsive Politics.
Its 2018 advocacy money was increased by $15.3 million over the $16.2 million the group had spent in 2017, its previous record year.
