Answer:lobbying

Step-by-step explanation:

Lobbying is an act in which a group of people try to persuade others towards supporting the same idea,policies or decision. Government mostly monitors and plan these lobbying groups.

Professionally lobbying is used to impact and influence regulations, government decisions,policies and usually the professional lobbyists represent certainly groups who hire people to lobby for them.

In the above text lobbying is done by an organisation that fight against women abuse and as a result they want to influence the policy or an act which support this idea. They drove all the way to ensure that they persuade the Congress to consider renewing the act that is part of lobbying to influence change .
