James J Cole

Jim has been lobbying the state legislature for over 25 years. He has provided leadership on some of the most difficult public policy issues affecting energy, waste and higher education. Jim has been involved in lobbying tax reduction issues and redefining the guiding statutes for these policy areas. He is very familiar with the state budgetary process. Jim has the ability to use the budget process to advantage. Perhaps Jim's greatest asset is his ability to think several steps ahead and recognize how amendments to legislation might spin out to positively or negatively impact a client.
