LD to Rep. McMorris Rodgers moves to agribusiness world

Posted by Keturah Hetrick on Aug. 10, 2023

After 10 years on the Hill, Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers' (R-Wash.) legislative director is betting the farm on her new job.

Liz Payne started this month with Bunge Ltd. as government-affairs director. The agribusiness and food-industry company, which focuses on plant-based products, runs a small in-house lobbying team.

Payne is an alumnus of former Rep. Scott Tipton (R-Colo.) and then-Rep. Markwayne Mullin (R-Okla.), in addition to her work for McMorris Rodgers, who chairs the House Energy and Commerce Committee.
