Posted by Mollie Simon on Nov. 25, 2019 Ben Dunham, who spent four years in late Sen. Frank Lautenberg's (D-N.J.) office and has lobbied ever since, left Holland & Knight this month to start his own law firm, Dunham Law & Policy PLLC. Dunham was serving as Lautenberg's chief counsel and deputy chief of staff when the senator died in office in 2013. After that, Dunham moved to McKenna Long & Aldridge (now Dentons) and then to Holland & Knight in 2016, where he was a senior policy adviser. He lobbied for organizations including Tesla Inc. and the Household and Commercial Products Association. Before working on Capitol Hill, Dunham spent time as an attorney at Earthjustice. Some people and organizations who "caught our eye" last week:
- Miles Taylor, National Security Adviser, House Homeland Security Committee (former staffer) – Uh oh!
Ban foes want him banned - Kash Patel, Senior Counsel, House Oversight and Reform Committee (former staffer) – Uh oh!
Another cow suit - Tim Morrison, Counsel, House Armed Services Committee, Strategic Forces Subcommittee (former staffer) – Bravo!
In the know on quid pro quo - Becky Leggieri, Clerk, House Appropriations Committee, Defense Subcommittee (current staffer), and Hayden Milberg, Professional Staff Member, House Appropriations Committee, Defense Subcommittee (current staffer) – Bravo!
