Lobbyists See Powerful Opportunities in Second Term
Energy lobbyists are gearing up for a boom in business to help shape and implement a wave of regulations governing energy production, greenhouse gas emissions, renewable fuels and other energy and environmental measures that K Street expects the newly reelected Obama administration to pursue aggressively.
"The administration hasn’t been shy about using their regulatory and administrative authority to drive their energy independence agenda," said Senior Policy Advisor in the Energy Group Beth Viola. "There’s no reason to think they’ll do otherwise in a second term."
