Political Law Blog

Overview

Steptoe's Political Law Blog focuses on developments and updates to federal, state, and local campaign finance, pay-to-play and lobbying law, and gift, travel, and ethics restrictions. It also addresses the Foreign Agents Registration Act, "revolving door" and other post-employment restrictions, related civil and criminal litigation and enforcement matters, and other topics especially relevant in an electoral year. With real-world understanding of the impact of these laws, our Political Law team provides the latest political analysis and offers actionable, practical takeaways on these issues.
