Former Virginia congressman registers to lobby for Russian bank on U.S. sanctions

Posted by Jenna Ebersole on June 22, 2015

A former congressman from Virginia has registered to lobby for a Russian bank hit by U.S. sanctions.

Rep. Rick Boucher (D-Va.) left Congress in 2011 after serving for nearly three decades, joining Sidley Austin LLP as head of the government strategies group a few months later. He filed his first lobbying registration last week for JSC VTB Bank in Moscow with Sidley Austin at a cost of $40,000 monthly.

Boucher's firm agreed to provide "government strategies counsel and lobbying" of Congress and the White House on U.S. government sanctions on Russian-affiliated banks. The Russian bank, the country's second largest, was targeted for sanctions last year. 

Boucher has a 1968 bachelor's degree from Roanoke College and a 1971 law degree from the University of Virginia.

Subjects: Former Rep. Rick Boucher (D-VA); Roanoke College; University of Virginia School of Law
