Lobbyist takes position with House Homeland Security Committee Republicans

Posted by Jenna Ebersole on Sept. 3, 2015

House Homeland Security Committee Republicans have secured a lobbyist for their staff.

Cindy Boyd joined the committee as director of member services and coalitions last month, a few months after leaving her job as senior associate at Townsend Public Affairs.

Boyd has registered to lobby since 2013 for a variety of clients, including cities across California such as Laguna Beach, Berkeley and San Pablo. She has also lobbied for community college districts, the Oakland Zoo and the Discovery Science Center.

Boyd lobbied on issues such as municipal government, conservation funding and Pell grant funding. She has past experience at the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy, Department of Homeland Security and CACI International Inc. as well as with California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and First Lady Maria Shriver.

The new committee staffer studied sociology at San Diego State University and has a bachelor's in security management in 2014 from Bellevue University.
