Civil-rights lobbyist returns to House Democrats

Posted by Keturah Hetrick on Oct. 1, 2021

A newly minted lobbyist is back with House Oversight and Reform Committee Democrats.

Kadeem Cooper rejoined the committee as deputy chief oversight counsel. He comes from the Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights Under Law, where he was policy counsel and a registered lobbyist. The group was founded in 1963 at President John F. Kennedy's request as an extension of the civil-rights movement.

Cooper originally worked for the committee from 2018 until this past January. He is also a former Covington & Burling associate.
