Attorneys' lobbyist heads home to the Hill

Posted by Keturah Hetrick on Sept. 9, 2020

A Democratic aide is back on the Hill after a year and a half lobbying for a trial lawyers' trade group.

Earl Flood is now counsel to Rep. Cedric Richmond (D-La.). He comes from the American Association for Justice, where he lobbied on a host of issues as the organization's federal-relations counsel. AAJ spent more than $5.3 million on federal lobbying in the last year.

Before joining the trade group in 2019, Flood worked as a policy aide to ex-Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.).
