What was lobbied

One issue area, each in the filer's own words, with who lobbied on it and where.

Defense DEF

Lobbying efforts with Congressional Staff were concentrated on the FY25 Continuing Resolution to monitor two Office of Naval Research (ONR) projects contained within PE0603801N focusing on High Energy Laser Programs and Hypersonic Defeat and Counterattack Capabilities. The first project, entitled Coherently-Combined Fiber Laser Arrays w/o Wavefront sensing was urged by the Chairman of the House Sub-committee on Defense and was funded in the previous two years. The second project also encouraged by Congress deals with the development and acceleration of advanced seeker technology for offensive hypersonic missiles. The FY26 appropriations lobbying will be again to seek additional appropriations for these to promising initiatives.
