The correct answer is D) Paying legal fees for people who file lawsuits that align with the group's goals.

One example of how interest groups often work to shape policy

through the courts is "Paying legal fees for people who file lawsuits that align with the group's goals."

Interest groups can inspire political participation but are overly focused on one's group goals. They dare to do anything that is in their hands to influence political and legal decisions that favor them.

In the United States politics, interest groups play an important role to exert pressure on Congressmen to approve the kind of legislation that helps their own interests. Most of the time, interest groups hire important lobbying firms to negotiate with legislators the passing of laws that could favor them. People should pay close attention to their representatives because they voted for them to serve the interest of the citizens. The same in the case of the Court's decision.

Step-by-step explanation:

Interest groups may also provide support through protesting, hiring or sending lawyers that would back up the person, as well as other legal support in helping the person(s) push the change that the group wants.
