Rep. Lofgren counsel picks Apple

Posted by Keturah Hetrick on June 25, 2020

An attorney has turned eight years with a Silicon Valley congresswoman into an Apple government-affairs gig.

Z.J. Hull joined the tech behemoth this month as senior government-affairs professional for cybersecurity and privacy. Apple disclosed that the company spent more than $7.4 million on federal lobbying in 2019. 

Before this, Hull was legislative counsel to Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-Calif.), as well as the congresswoman's Administration Committee technology and cybersecurity adviser. Lofgren's district includes San Jose, Silicon Valley's largest city.
