ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Lobby group

A lobby group is like a team of people who work together to try to convince important people, like politicians, to do things they want them to do. Imagine it like sharing toys with your friends. You might try to convince your friend to share their toy with you by telling them how much fun it would be to play together. A lobby group does this same thing, but with things like laws and rules instead of toys. They talk to important people and tell them why they think certain things should be done or not done, and they try to convince them to agree with them.
