Interest groups dramatically shape political outcomes and mobilize the public towards specific objectives. In many cases the underlying political actors that impact legislative outcomes are the interest groups who persuade politicians to vote a certain way. Private interests have in many cases been given a bad name but a lot of them fight very hard for what they believe is best for society and many citizens would support them if they had better working knowledge of their activities. Digital Citizen gives interest groups their own unique profiles so that groups have tools to organize events and promote their cause. The difference between a regular user profile and an interest group profile will mostly be cosmetic, thus they will not be given any special advantages over individual users.
