Pharma distributor picks up House legislative director

Posted by Keturah Hetrick on Sept. 28, 2017

A division of a pharmaceutical distribution giant snagged Rep. Brad Wenstrup's (R-Ohio) legislative director to head its federal government relations team.

McKesson Specialty Health, which Lisa Langenderfer joined this month, lobbies mainly on Medicare and oncology issues through its contract with health-law firm Hooper, Lundy and Bookman. The parent company, McKesson Corp., had a whopping $180 billion in revenue last year. 

Langenderfer had worked as Wenstrup's legislative director since 2013 and has also held positions with the House Republican Conference and with Rep. Jim Renacci (R-Ohio). Her husband, James Langenderfer, is chief of staff to Rep. Brian Mast (R-Fla.).
