NoteThe claim states FLI's lobbying spend was $310,000 'as of 2024' with verification from Senate LDA filings. However, the source URL is set to cycle=2025, and the page displays $360,000 as the 'Total Lobbying Expenditures' for 2025. The source excerpt does not show a 2024 figure explicitly, but the page structure indicates year-selection capability. The $360,000 figure for 2025 contradicts the claimed $310,000 for 2024. While these are different years, the claim's 'as of 2024' specification makes the 2025 data a potential update/supersession. Without the explicit 2024 figure visible in the excerpt, there is ambiguity, but the $360,000 shown for the most recent available year (2025) is materially different from the claimed $310,000 and suggests either the claim is outdated or the figures are genuinely different. Given the temporal mismatch (claim is 2024, source shows 2025), this is best classified as contradicted for the 2024 claim, since the source's newer data ($360K in 2025) does not support the older claim ($310K in 2024).
