Business entities often provided some sort of 'financial help' to support several  lawmakers during their campaign. This financial help will aid them securing their position within the government body.

In return, These business entities often requested that these lawmakers will pass a certain law that will beneficial for their industry. Under such circumstances, lawmakers will become more likely to conform to the request since they fear that they will lose their financial help if they choose not to.
