K Street goes for 2028 Olympic gold

Posted by Heavyn Lester on June 3, 2024

While the world prepares for this summer's Paris Olympics, K Street is looking ahead to the 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles, California.

The Los Angeles Organizing Committee for the Olympic and Paralympic Games 2028 spent approximately $170,000 on lobbying in 2024 Q1, making it the committee's most expensive quarter yet. The committee spent more than $1.3 million on lobbying from 2020-2023. 

Lobbying issues for 2024 Q1 included transportation policy and funding and "U.S. government support" for the 2028 games. 

Former Rep. Ed Royce (R-Calif.) and former Sen. Mark Pryor (D-Ark.) were amongst the numerous revolving door lobbyists representing the committee through firms Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck LLP, Mayer Brown LLP and Nickles Group LLC in 2024 Q1.
