Posted by Keturah Hetrick on May 8, 2023 A former Republican staffer with 26 years of House experience has finally made the move to K Street. Craig Roberts is now a senior vice president at Milne, Wiener & Shofe Global Strategies. The bipartisan firm lobbies for clients ranging from pharmaceutical companies to the American Postal Workers Union. Roberts was most recently a special adviser to House Administration Committee Republicans. Roberts got his start in Illinois, where he held senior roles in the state government and co-authored several editions of the Almanac of Illinois Politics. He first moved to D.C. as chief of staff to then-Rep. John Shimkus (R-Ill.) - a position he held for the congressman's entire 24-year House tenure. Some people and organizations who "caught our eye" last week:
