Podcast host lobbying for occupational therapy

Posted by Keturah Hetrick on Oct. 4, 2016

By night, former Hill staffer Abe Saffer discusses movies and beer in the Movie Nightcap podcast. By day, he's a newly minted lobbyist for the American Occupational Therapy Association.

Founded in 1917, AOTA is as a professional association that represents those in the occupational therapy industry. The group has spent at least $340,000 on lobbying so far this year.

The Rochester, N.Y. native previously worked as associate director of state government affairs at the American Diabetes Association, and from 2008 to 2009, served as scheduler to Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Texas).
