Financial firms have long lobbied the Federal Reserve, high-minded maker of monetary policy. But the Fed's foray into lending during the financial crisis this year has opened it up to lobbying from niche industries like recreational boat manufacturers, rental car companies, and -- Dunkin' Donuts?
Indeed. Dunkin' Brands, parent company of Dunkin' Donuts and Baskin-Robbins, began lobbying the Fed in the second quarter of this year, according to lobbying disclosure reports filed with Congress.

I would love to believe their argument that they are fighting for the "entrepreneurial spirit" but that just sounds like a crock
