Lobbying

Lottsfeldt Strategies provides critical insight, guidance and advocacy on local, state and federal policy issues. As an effective lobbying firm, we start by simply listening. Then we analyze your challenges and develop an in-depth, thoughtful approach to move you successfully toward your goals.
  • Federal Grass Tops

    We understand what makes our Alaska and Oregon congressional delegations tick. Each member of Congress has their own priorities, and we are good at creating “issue ambassadors” to get your issue noticed by Federal lawmakers. We implement Grass Top programs that create multiple contacts with Senators and Congress members, as well as with their staffs. We hand-selected key members of an office holders’ inner circle, train them on the issue, and deploy the contact so it's both authentic and organic.
  • State & Local Lobbying

    State legislatures and City Halls are places where Jim Lottsfeldt and his associates can be found pushing legislation, or fighting bad bills. They represent a wide range of interests and work hard for their clients during the legislative session, and the interim. We work year round with legislators and city council members to move issues forward.

Straight Talk

Our clients benefit the most from our relentless honesty and our understanding of what it takes to create the changes you need. You may not always like what we tell you, but we believe you benefit most from no-nonsense assessments with realistic expectations. By calling it as we see it, we give you a practical view of the opportunities and obstacles in your path.

We say what we do, and do what we say. And we work hard. That simple, yet profound statement means a great deal to our clients. They know we earn our fee daily by delivering their messages to the people who matter. Rather than measuring our success by the lobbying industry’s standard of income, we measure our performance by the amount of favorable impact achieved for our clients. We work with our clients to evaluate our progress toward reaching clients’ strategic plan milestones, fine tuning our approach, and setting new targets. If you want to know how well we’re doing, just ask our clients.
