What changed in the reviewed records

Organization profiles now make Q1-to-Q2 comparisons easier to find and explain when the amount fields do not support a valid comparison. A reviewed Boeing-to-bill connection also has a clearer path through the related issue and public-office records.

  1. Microsoft's reviewed filing count and separately reported amounts increased

    Across 32 retained filings for 2026 Q1 through 2026 Q2, 2026 Q1 contains 15 and 2026 Q2 contains 17; 2026 Q2 had 2 more retained filings. For 2026 Q1 through 2026 Q2, Self-reported expenses increased by $300,000 (12.6%), from $2,390,000 in 2026 Q1 to $2,690,000 in 2026 Q2. Outside-firm income increased by $90,000 (11.1%), from $810,000 in 2026 Q1 to $900,000 in 2026 Q2. The two measures stay separate and are never added together.

  2. Boeing's filing count was unchanged, while its amount comparison remains unavailable

    Across 24 retained filings for 2026 Q1 through 2026 Q2, 2026 Q1 contains 12 and 2026 Q2 contains 12; the quarterly count was unchanged. For 2026 Q1 through 2026 Q2, Self-reported expenses cannot be compared across the two quarters because 1 of 2 quarter summaries has an incomplete or non-applicable amount state. Missing values remain unavailable rather than becoming zero. Outside-firm income cannot be compared across the two quarters because 1 of 2 quarter summaries has an incomplete or non-applicable amount state. Missing values remain unavailable rather than becoming zero. The two measures stay separate and are never added together.

    2026 Q1 through 2026 Q2
  3. A reviewed Boeing and H.R. 3838 context path is easier to follow

    Selected LDA activity text references the FY26 National Defense Authorization Act; H.R. 3838 is a FY2026 NDAA bill. This is context, not proof of targeting or influence. The subject overlap does not establish that a filing targeted this bill or affected its outcome.

    Date or period
    Reviewed Q4 2025 and Q1-Q2 2026 lobbying records; 119th Congress bill record

How to verify this update

Each observation links to the page section that shows the calculation, source records, or reviewed connection. Dollar measures remain separate, unavailable fields do not become zero, and the relationship explanation states why the records are shown together.

What this update does not claim

The observations do not imply that this collection is complete, that an amount change caused an event, or that Boeing supported, opposed, contacted anyone about, or affected H.R. 3838. Later source amendments may change a future reviewed comparison.
