WASHINGTON — A conservative group advocating against changing how pharmacy middlemen operate spent more than $1 million on lobbying last quarter — its highest-ever spend by far, according to federal filings.

The Council for Citizens Against Government Waste spent $1.1 million on lobbying last quarter, and only employed a single lobbyist. That’s 22 times the $50,000 it spent in the same quarter last year. Its prior spending record was $700,000, from the start of 2020.
