ML-Implode News - Wells Fargo increases its lobbying efforts

``At the federal level, Wells Fargo is again the top commercial bank lobbying spender, with $3.8 million spent in the first half of the year, according to data from the Center for Responsive Politics. Last year, Wells Fargo led the industry to a record-high level of lobbying spending.
Wells Fargo has also aimed its message at mayors. The bank has hosted four gatherings of city executives in recent months -- most recently last week in Charlotte, where the bank showed a group of mayors around its housing preservation workshop.''
