AARP adds House LA

Posted by Keturah Hetrick on May 29, 2019

After five years in the House, an aide to Rep. Adam Smith (D-Wash.) has retired to AARP.

Fernando Ruiz joined the nonprofit this month as a government affairs adviser. Last year, AARP disclosed nearly $8.3 million in federal lobbying expenses, mostly through its in-house team.

Ruiz most recently worked as an LA to Smith and previously worked for retired Rep. Rubén Hinojosa (D-Texas).
