Dan Renberg Discusses the Government Shutdown with Bloomberg News
Dan Renberg, co-leader of the Government Relations practice, spoke with Bloomberg News about the impact the government shutdown was having on lobbying efforts around the Capitol with many federal employees being furloughed.
Bloomberg reported that, “even as much of the federal government has shut down, K Street carries on. In fact, with many government functions on hold, lawmakers and those agency officials who remain on the job have more time for meetings.
Mr. Renberg told Bloomberg that he brought an out-of-town client to four meetings during the first day of the government shutdown. “We had some our most productive meetings of the year,” Mr. Renberg said. “Because people had time for slightly more leisurely conversation, the meetings were a little less rushed.”
