Ex-Rep. Steve Stivers brings Ohio Chamber back to D.C.

Posted by Keturah Hetrick on June 3, 2022

Ex-Rep. Steve Stivers (R-Ohio) has led the Ohio Chamber of Commerce back to Washington, with inaugural lobbying registrations for both the organization and the former congressman.

According to its first federal lobbying filing, Stivers is one half of an Ohio Chamber pair lobbying on the United States Innovation and Competition Act and the Creating Helpful Incentives to Produce Semiconductors for America Act. Stivers resigned from Congress to lead the Ohio Chamber in May 2021.

Former members are required to wait one year from the time they leave Congress before lobbying the House or Senate, per ethics rules

The Ohio Chamber lists Justin Barnes, a former Stivers congressional aide and now the executive director of the Ohio Chamber of Commerce Research Foundation, as its other lobbyist.
