Food-bank lobbyist takes DSOC's helm

Posted by Keturah Hetrick on March 4, 2021

The Democratic Steering and Outreach Committee has hired a lobbyist as its leader.

Kate Leone comes from Feeding America, where she was chief government relations officer. She lobbied on agriculture issues for the food-bank network.

Now DSOC's staff director, Leone is no stranger to the Senate. Before joining Feeding America in 2017, she was counsel to Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D-N.H.), ex-Sen. Harry Reid (D-Nev.) and ex-Senate Minority Leader Tom Daschle (D-S.D.).
