From: GOPLobbyists Are Ecstatic About Republican Trifecta
ROLL CALL (US) 01-22-2001

Jack Abramoff

Senior Director of Government Affairs

Greenberg Traurig LLP

Abramoff's decision to move to this Miami-based firm from Preston Gates Ellis & Rouvelas Meeds was big news on K Street earlier this month, since the GOP lobbyist may be worth as much as $8 million in annual client fees to his new firm.

Abramoff is close to Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott (R-Miss.) and House Majority Whip Tom DeLay (R-Texas), as well as Attorney General-designate John Ashcroft and Energy Secretary-designate Spence Abraham.

Greenberg Traurig also added Tony Rudy and Michael Scanlon, two former top DeLay aides, giving the firm access to leadership staff on the Hill, in addition to those Congressional aides moving over to the White House.

Abramoff's clients include the Commonwealth of Northern Mariana Islands, the Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians and the Channel One network.
