Small Web Publishers to Descend on Capitol Hill

Companies will lobby on online privacy legislation

The online and mobile privacy debate on Capitol Hill has seen a parade of some of the biggest names in the business called into hearings, including Google, Apple, Twitter, and Facebook. But nothing makes an impact in Washington like small businesses in distress, crying out for a politician to swoop in and save the day.

So on Monday and Tuesday, about 60 small publishers from 25 states will descend on Capitol Hill to make their case that without targeted advertising, their small businesses, which have annual revenue under $1 million, would probably fold.
