UMich lobbyist finds her way back to Senate Democrats

Posted by Keturah Hetrick on Oct. 26, 2023

A longtime Democratic staffer has returned to the Senate following a brief University of Michigan lobbying stint.

Since leaving her position as federal-relations director for the university, Amanda Beaumont has joined the Appropriations Committee's Health and Human Services, Education and Related Agencies Subcommittee, where she is a professional staff member under subcommittee Chair Tammy Baldwin (R-Wis.).

Beaumont spent a decade with the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee until joining the Univeristy of Michigan at the beginning of this term. She is also an alumna of then-Sens. Russ Feingold (D-Wis.) and Al Franken (D-Minn.), as well as a former Alliance for Excellent Education lobbyist.
