Lobbying Transparency
Overall Assessment Analysis Score
Limited Discover Financial Services offers only limited insight into its climate-related lobbying. The company notes that lobbying is handled by a Government Relations team and financed in part through a voluntary employee Political Action Committee, and it reports that it files state and federal lobbying disclosure reports and “engag[es] with public officials.” Beyond this high-level description, however, it does not identify which public bodies or officials it contacts, describe specific methods such as meetings, testimony, or written submissions, or name any climate-related laws, regulations, or policy proposals it has tried to influence. Likewise, it provides no indication of the positions it advocates or the policy outcomes it seeks. As a result, readers gain only a basic understanding that some lobbying infrastructure exists, but virtually no transparency about climate policy engagements themselves, the mechanisms used, or the objectives pursued.
