Question
Alyssa Katz’s book The Influence Machine describes how this organization replaced its leader, Richard Lesher, because of his support for the Clinton administration’s health care proposal. In 2009, many high-profile members left this organization because its vice president William Kovacs planned to sue the EPA to create the “Scopes monkey trial of the 21st century.” In 1997, under Thomas Donohue, this organization began to amass political power using affiliates like its Institute for Legal Reform. Lewis Powell’s 1971 memo “Attack on the American Free Enterprise System” was addressed to this organization, which has spent the most money on federal lobbying in the past 25 years. This national organization is mirrored by local ones that promote tourism through member dues from small businesses. For 10 points, name this lobbying group that is the world’s largest business association. ■END■
