Sen. Rounds LA jumps to GSK

Posted by Andy Gottlieb on April 22, 2024

A Republican staffer has moved to Big Pharma after six years on Capitol Hill.

Liam McDonald is now a director of federal government affairs at pharmaceutical conglomerate GSK plc. He most recently served as a legislative assistant for Sen. Mike Rounds (R-S.D.) with a legislative portfolio including health policy. McDonald previously worked for Reps. Tim Burchett (R-Tenn.) and Phil Roe (R-Tenn.).

GSK, formerly known as GlaxoSmithKline, spent more than five million dollars on federal lobbying in 2023, the last full year for which records are available.
