Answer:

Interest groups not only report developments or trends but also try to influence them in a manner that benefits their members or the cause they support.

Step-by-step explanation:

This persuasion is accomplished through lobbying, grass-roots campaigns, political action committees, and litigation.

Answer:

Interest groups support candidates who are sympathetic to their views in hopes of gaining access to them once they are in office. For example, an organization like the NRA will back candidates who support Second Amendment rights. Both the NRA and the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence (an interest group that favors background checks for firearm purchases) have grading systems that evaluate candidates and states based on their records of supporting these organizations.
