Pennsylvania has tapped former Democratic Congressman Ron Klink, who represented a district in the western part of the Keystone State, to handle legislative and regulatory matters.
In April, Pennsylvania ended its $30K quarterly retainer relationship with Ridge Policy Group, which was founded by the state's former Republican Governor & US Homeland Security chief Tom Ridge. RPG dealt with immigration, education and other matters.
RPG's exit from the Pennsylvania payroll followed the 2014 election of Democrat Tom Wolf as governor to replace Republican Tom Corbett.
Klink's political career in Pennsylvania ended with his unsuccessful bid for governor in 2000 against Rick Santorum.
He ran Ron Klink and Assocs., government/media relations, business development and coalition-building shop, before joining Nelson Mullins Riley & Scarborough's DC office as senior policy advisor.
Mike Nardelli, who worked for Klink on Capitol Hill, is a policy advisor at NMR&S and lobbyist for Pennsylvania.
