Posted by Keturah Hetrick on July 19, 2021 Squire Patton Boggs has made a first-time lobbyist out of former Rep. Joe Crowley (D-N.Y.). The law firm recently added Crowley to its existing contract with Calvary Hospital, according to a recent disclosure. The Bronx hospital is one of the country's largest instutitions focused on end-of-life hospice care and hired Squire Patton Boggs for work on accelerated Medicare payments to health-care providers. Crowley joined Squire Patton Boggs as a senior policy adviser in 2019, shortly after losing his primary bid to now-Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.). The Hill reported in May that Crowley would register as a lobbyist for music-creators' coalition MusicFIRST, though Squire Patton Boggs has not yet disclosed adding Crowley to that contract.
