How do you tell which bills were targeted with their lobbying dollars?
In 2016 Intuit's revenue was something like $4.7 billion. And they spent $2 million lobbying against bills that threaten the fundamental nature of their business?
That seems absurdly low to me.

It looks like this information is published by the senate under the "Lobbying Disclosure Act of 1995"

opensecrets.org has a more easily-browsed index linking to the senate reports: https://www.opensecrets.org/orgs/lobby.php?id=D000022016
