Posted by Sean Myers on Feb. 29, 2016 The daughter of a former representative has followed in her father's footsteps and taken a role on the Hill. Molly Lazio, daughter of former Rep. Rick Lazio (R-N.Y.), who perhaps most notably lost against Hillary Clinton in a bid for the Senate, accepted a role as staff assistant earlier this month on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. She will serve Sen. Bob Corker (R-Tenn.). The role is not Lazio's first in politics: She worked as a summer intern for her father's 2010 gubernatorial campaign, which ended in a primary loss to Carl Paladino, and as a recruitment coordinator for Grassroots Campaigns during the summer of 2011. She also interned in the Senate before joining Corker's staff on the Foreign Relations Committee. A graduate of Hamilton College, Lazio will get an opportunity while on Corker's staff to satisfy her interest in international issues. Some people and organizations who "caught our eye" last week:
- Justin Ouimette, Executive Director, House Freedom Caucus (current staffer) – Bravo!
Now free to move up in the office - Gabi Chojkier, Staff Assistant, Former Rep. Bob Filner (D-Calif.) (former staffer) – Bravo!
Preparing Obama for viajes to Cuba and Argentina - Adrienne Watson, Press Secretary, Sen. Joe Donnelly (D-Ind.) (former staffer) – Bravo!

Needs some cool pants for a potentially hot seat - Samuel Herschel Clauder, Rep. Joe Baca, Aide (former staffer) – Uh oh!
