NRA lobbyist back to Hill as chief of staff

Posted by Keturah Hetrick on July 11, 2017

Less than a month after the shooting at a congressional baseball practice reignited a debate about the role of firearms in society, Rep. Austin Scott (R-Ga.) has brought a gun lobbyist on as chief of staff.

Jason Lawrence had worked as a federal liaison to the National Rifle Association Institute for Legislative Action, the NRA's lobbying arm, since 2015. The NRA gave Scott, a lifetime member of the advocacy group, a 93 percent rating last year for his positions on gun issues.

Before moving to the NRA, Lawrence worked for Austin and a series of other Georgia Republicans: retired Rep. Lynn Westmoreland, Rep. Tom Graves and retired Sen. Saxby Chambliss.

Subjects: Former Sen. Saxby Chambliss (R-GA); Former Rep. Tom Graves (R-GA); Former Rep. Lynn Westmoreland (R-GA); National Rifle Association Institute for Legislative Action; National Rifle Association; Rep. Austin Scott (R-GA); Jason H. Lawrence
