Lobby 99 is an Israeli not-for-profit initiative, aimed at promoting the interests of the public in the Knesset and the government. It was founded as a reaction to the wide phenomenon of commercial lobbyists that do the same, but only for corporations, tycoons and closed interest groups. Its name draws inspiration from the widely known We are the 99% slogan, coined by the occupy movement. The initiative began as crowdfunding project in June 2015. After it was funded with 136,000 ILS from 1084 donors (twice the original goal), a vote was held in order to decide on the main aspects upon which to focus the lobbying. These were: transparency, royalties from natural resources (in Israel specifically natural gas and minerals) and a reform in the banking sector. More information...
