Almost all freshman senators and 3/5 of freshman reps have staffed up with lobbyists

Posted by Keturah Hetrick on Aug. 30, 2022

Three out of every five of this session's freshman representatives and nearly all freshman senators have added at least one lobbyist to their staff, according to LegiStorm data.

Eight of the 117th Congress's nine senators - all but Sen. Bill Hagerty (R-Tenn.) - have hired former registered federal lobbyists to their personal and/or committee offices. Among 72 House freshman, at least 42 have hired ex-lobbyists to their payrolls.

Sen. Roger Marshall (R-Kan.), who previously served in the House, has hired five lobbyists since moving to the Senate in 2021. Freshman Sens. John Hickenlooper (D-Colo.), Cynthia Lummis (R-Wyo.), Jon Ossoff (D-Ga.), Alex Padilla (D-Calif.) and Raphael Warnock (D-Ga.), as well as Reps. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) and Frank Mrvan (D-Ind.), have hired least three lobbyists apiece.

Roughly three percent of current staff across the entire House and Senate have previously registered as federal lobbyists or foreign agents. This count includes district staff.

Subjects: Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-GA); Sen. Alex Padilla (D-CA); Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-GA); Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC); Sen. Roger Marshall (R-KS); Sen. John Hickenlooper (D-CO); Sen. Cynthia Lummis (R-WY); Rep. Frank Mrvan (D-IN); Sen. Bill Hagerty (R-TN)
