Fedex Part of “Permanent” Lobbying Presence in Washington

September 25th, 2007 · No Comments

Lobbying, while detested by the majority of the voting public, remains a fact of life, and it appears that lobbying efforts in general are developing and changing with the times.  Fedex is just one of many large companies and interest groups that’s mentioned in a story that appears in the Washington Post recently, where columnist Jeffrey H. Birnbaum explains specifically how these interests are developing. 

Birnbaum mentions Fedex as part of a group that has purchased property in the district, which obviously allows for continuous lobbying efforts given the proximity that these properties enjoy with their lobbying targets. 

“Both FedEx and UPS have townhouses, which are, appropriately, on opposite sides of the Capitol. The Associated General Contractors of America is among a large cluster of lobbyists near the House office buildings, a mere “nine iron to the

Cannon Building,” says Stephen E. Sandherr, the group’s chief executive.”

No one knows for sure just what effects lobbying has had or will have on Fedex and their legal problems.  However, it doesn’t take a clairvoyant to understand that these companies wouldn’t be “setting up shop” on such a permanent basis if their lobbying efforts did not generate some tangible results.  If you have been wronged by this situation, contact the Fedex overtime attorneys at Pulaski & Middleman today to schedule a free initial consultation.
