About Political Solutions

Conceived in 2003 with a $100 investment, Political Solutions is now one of the Capitol’s top lobbying firms. Political Solutions’ partners established the firm to bring clients a higher level of service and to do business differently and more effectively.

Its partners team lobby, a unique approach that benefits clients by enabling them to take advantage of each partner's expertise in the intricacies of the legislative process and strong bipartisan relationships in the Capitol. Founding partners Kristin Beard King, Stacy Dwelley, and Tami Miller offer Political Solutions clients tenacious lobbying efforts, accessibility, and honest feedback, as well as a stellar track record of legislative successes.

In addition to lobbying services in Sacramento, Political Solutions offers consulting services in Washington, DC, where California's Congressional delegation has a number of former state assembly members and senators. Political Solutions assists clients in formulating strategy, relationship building, and profile building that will help them to achieve their objectives on the federal level.

In 2006, the Women’s Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC) certified Political Solutions as a Women’s Business Enterprise (WBE). It is the only women-owned lobbying firm in California.

"For nearly a decade, Political Solutions has provided the California Travel Association's incredibly diverse membership with business assistance and guidance which incorporates unique insights, astute strategic planning, superb execution and great service, wherever and wherever we need it. The respect they have earned by the public, private and legislative sectors provides for an unparalleled advantage by allowing us access to key decision makers, lawmakers, businesses and organizations. In the competitive world that we find ourselves, I cannot imagine any organization that could provide a greater impact for insuring the investments and efforts made by businesses that derive revenues in California."

~ John Severini, President and CEO, California Travel Industry Association (CalTIA)

"Effective advocacy is about what you know, who you know and how hard you work. These are the principal reasons Family Winemakers of California retained Political Solutions in 2005. The impact in terms of reach, visibility, credibility and results for small wineries throughout California was immediate. Political Solutions has helped steer our public policy agenda of expanding marketing opportunities for all wine producers while fending off tax and fee increases. Term limits dictate that today's successful lobbying paradigm requires maximizing the use of resources and connections within the firm and its clients. Political Solution has found the unique blend and is highly regarded within the state's lobbying community."

~ Paul Kronenberg, President Family Winemakers of California.
