In plain words: Who pays lobbyists AND donates to the deciders — paying on both sides of the same table.

Lobby + Money — who lobbies and pays the deciders
Entities that appear in both public records at once: registered to lobby the State of
Hawaiʻi (Ethics Commission) and a campaign donor to a tracked Maui official. Lobbying is lawful;
donating is lawful. Doing both is a double channel — so it belongs on the map, as a question.

Sources: Hawaiʻi State Ethics Commission lobbyist registration statements (opendata.hawaii.gov)
× campaign-finance donor profiles (public record). Matched on entity name. Lawful activity — documented
facts and open questions, not findings of wrongdoing. NOTE: this is State lobbying; Maui County
contract awardees who lobby only at the county level (or not at all) will not appear here — that gap is
why the subcontractor + sole-source UIPA requests matter.
The question. When the same entity both funds a council member's campaign and pays
lobbyists to shape the laws that member votes on, two influence channels converge on one decider. The
record below shows which entities do both, and on how many officials. Read it beside their votes and
recusals — that is where the question gets answered.
