Rep. DesJarlais nabs traffic-safety aide

Posted by Keturah Hetrick on Oct. 19, 2017

Rep. Scott DesJarlais (R-Tenn.) has given the green light to a traffic-safety advocate.

Hannah Russell, who DesJarlais has hired as a legislative assistant, previously spent two years as a government-relations assistant at the American Traffic Safety Services Association. 

So far this year, ATSSA has disclosed $250,000 spent to lobby the federal government on infrastructure legislation, highway funding and vehicle-communication issues. Russell did not register as a federal lobbyist through the trade group.
