Question

Rick wants to support a bill which is about to be voted on in his state's legislature. How might Rick more effectively support the bill as a member of a special interest group?
Rick's vote in the upcoming elections will count for more than it would have if he wasn't a member.
Elected officials will read e-mails from special interest groups but not from individuals.
Elected officials will allow members of special interest groups to speak at Senate hearings.
Elected officials will likely pay more attention to messages that come from a group of people.

Answer 1

The answer would be D

Answer 2

My answer is D: Elected officials will likely pay more attention to messages that come from a group of people.

My reasoning for this is that government officials usually pay attention to a group of like-minded people with the same opinions or etc. on a specific topic especially if the said group has interests in supporting them. It also the only option that makes the most sense, logically speaking.

Hope this helps! :)
