Smith staffer leaves the congressional womb, heads to ACOG

Caught Our Eye Posted by Steve Shapiro on Friday, December 11, 2015

The gestation of a Rep. Adam Smith (D-Wash.) legislative assistant's congressional career is now complete as she has left his office for the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists.

Rebecca Nathanson took a federal affairs manager position with ACOG last month after working in Smith's office for a little more than four years. She began as an intern in 2011, returned in 2013 and quickly rose in the ranks. Nathanson became Smith's scheduler at the beginning of 2013, later switching to the legislative side, eventually becoming senior legislative assistant.

Custom member lists make for more powerful searching

DevBlog Posted on Friday, December 11, 2015
LegiStorm has released a new Pro feature that allows customers to build custom lists of members of Congress, allowing data on the site to be filtered to only the most relevant members.

Clients with facilities in certain districts or who have key legislative advocates who they need to focus on can build more refined searches.

To start with, LegiStorm has placed this functionality on the Advanced Staff Search page, where staff lists can be created that only work for these members and share other relevant characteristics to the subscriber, such as that they work on health care issues. Soon we will make sure this filtering is available for other relevant features, such as our StormFeed stream of press releases and tweets.

We have found LegiStorm to be the ultimate tool in communicating with congressional offices, either individually or with a group. We have been able to reach out with messages to all chiefs of staff and legislative directors, or staff dedicated to specific areas. We believe that this ability was instrumental in passing two key pieces of legislation which were imperative to our members.

The data provided by LegiStorm stands out as the best Congressional data available. The accuracy and organization of LegiStorm's data has meant that I've been able to greatly speed up progress on my research. I have no hesitation in recommending LegiStorm to all types of researchers, journalists, lobbyists and other political professionals.
