Your legislative objectives may appear straightforward, but achieving them in a timely and cost-effective manner may require navigating a number of different political rapids. What SDA provides is years of experience with the federal bureaucracy, in-depth knowledge of regulatory and legislative process, and constant vigilance to the always shifting political situation as it impacts our clients' objectives.
SDA works with each client to develop a focused legislative strategy, and then manages the day-to-day government affairs agenda. We are the link between the client and the government, always taking advantage of new targets of opportunity as they emerge. To these ends we:
- Lobby Congress, Executive Branch agencies and state and local governments
- Monitor legislation
- Identify federal appropriations for client projects
- Develop legislation to move our client's agenda forward
- Schedule meetings and presentations with Members of Congress and Administration Officials
- Arrange testimony before congressional committees
- Provide grants assistance with federal agencies
- Work to build support for our client's projects in their home state
- Keep our clients fully informed, and consult with them about future moves
