Joe Biden campaign aides try to block lobbyists from privately meeting with him at fundraisers

Biden has sworn off lobbyist contributions for the 2020 election and has yet to have a fundraiser hosted by a registered lobbyist.

"They have high sensitivity on dialogue with lobbyists. They have been frozen out on the money," a person close to Biden explained. In April, Biden pledged that he would not accept any campaign contributions from registered lobbyists. A few of the fundraising events have been hosted by public affairs executives with links to the government relations industry, but they are not currently registered as lobbyists, records show. Some of these hosts, however, have done past lobbying work.
