Sen. Tammy Baldwin hires former Human Rights Campaign lawyer

Posted by John Sugden on April 29, 2014
Brian Moulton, longtime counsel and lobbyist for Human Rights Campaign left the LGBT rights organization this month in favor of a legal counsel position in Sen. Tammy Baldwin's (D-Wis.) office.

Baldwin simultaneously became the first openly gay U.S. senator-elect and first female senator from Wisconsin in 2012 when she defeated her Republican opponent. Baldwin is known for her strong views on gay and women's rights as well as a markedly liberal voting record.

Moulton joined HRC full time in 2004 after completing law school at George Washington University. Prior to his departure, Moulton worked as HRC's Legal Director, managing a team of lawyers and himself focusing on "issues including employment, health, marriage and relationship recognition."

Moulton will work on variety of issues for Baldwin's office including the judiciary, gun rights and immigration.
