Legislative Advocacy
Paul Marcone & Associates are adept at devising and implementing legislative advocacy campaigns -- including grassroots efforts specifically tailored to your organization's membership and needs. The initiatives can range from lobbying Congress to approve a specific piece of legislation to having an amendment included in a major bill or blocking a particular legislative initiative. Paul Marcone & Associates will develop a legislative advocacy campaign that is innovative and effective.
Federal Contracting
For private companies looking to either break into federal contracting or expand their sales to federal agencies, Paul Marcone & Associates will put their experience to work in a number of ways. We can maximize your federal outreach efforts to ensure that key federal managers and policy makers are well aware of your company's products and services. We will also make sure that your company's products are on the appropriate GSA Schedules and that your company is taking full advantage of the free resources and tools that the federal government offers to small businesses.
Regulatory Relief
In many instances, an organization can be significantly impacted by federal regulations or changes in federal policies. Changing one sentence in a federal law can make all the difference in a world to a company seeking a federally guaranteed loan, federal approval of overseas sales, federal subsidies or relief from onerous regulations. We can devise legislative strategies to provide regulatory relief for a client or affect a desired change in federal policy.
Federal Discretionary Funding
Paul Marcone & Associates also works with clients to secure funding directly from federal agencies. We will identify funding opportunities, draft federal grant applications, ensure that the applications are filled-out properly and submitted on time, schedule meetings with key federal officials, develop strategies to get Congressional support for federal grant applications and work with the client to keep key supporters and federal officials apprised of the client’s progress.
Congressional Appropriations Process
While Congress has currently imposed a moratorium on earmarks, Paul Marcone & Associates’ strengths is its detailed knowledge of the appropriations process.
Paul Marcone and Associates works in a myriad of ways to secure legislative victories for its clients by getting language included in one of the 12 appropriation bills that Congress must pass every year to fund the federal government.
Our team of seasoned professionals put their decades of experience to work to figure out the best legislative strategies for our clients. We work tenaciously and deliberately to navigate our clients
successfully through the labyrinth of the Congressional appropriations process.
We have successfully secured federal funding and legislative fixes in appropriation bills for clients covering a wide range of programs: after school, mentoring, curriculum development, nursing, theater construction, youth violence research, conflict resolution, economic development, vocational education, harbor dredging, abstinence education, summer camps, highway construction, community center construction and programs for special needs children.
The hallmarks of the company are expertise, savvy, tenacity, knowledge and hard work.
Are You Missing Out?
Every year Congress awards hundreds of millions of dollars in grants and also passes hundreds of bills impacting every American.
You can make a difference and you can achieve your goals -- with the right strategy and the appropriate representation.
We can help navigate your organization through the complex world of Capitol Hill and the federal government.
