Ford Lobbyist Takes Top Hill Slot

Ford Motor Company lobbyist Bruce Andrews will be starting as general counsel of the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation on March 9. As a lobbyist, he has also worked for Arnold & Porter and Quinn Gillespie & Associates.

"I am excited for the opportunity to return to public service to work for Chairman [Jay] Rockefeller [D-W.Va.] and the Committee," wrote Andrews in an email he circulated to his contacts.

In addition to his lobbying work, Andrews spent seven years on the Hill, including three years as the legislative director for Rep. Tim Holden, D-Pa. His replacement at Ford has not been named, "but hopefully will be shortly," Andrews wrote. Andrews joined Ford as a vice president of government relations in 2007. Andrews, a Syracuse, New York native, is a graduate of the Georgetown University Law Center and Haverford College.
