Velazquez adds counsel for Citigroup, MetLife to team

Posted by Keturah Hetrick on Nov. 20, 2018

The Small Business Committee's top Democrat has picked up an attorney whose experience spans the business world.

Neysa Alsina is now senior policy adviser to Rep. Nydia Velázquez (D-N.Y.). Velázquez is expected to rise from Small Business Committee ranking member to chair when Democrats take over as the House's majority party in January.

Alsina most recently worked as counsel to the New York City Bar Association and previously worked for Municipal Credit Union, Citigroup and MetLife. She now handles legislative issues related to health care, women's rights and Puerto Rico.
