Federal Appropriations: Navigating the evolving appropriations process
Federal Appropriations
Securing appropriations continues to be one of the most challenging policy processes in government. Over the past 40 years, Williams & Jensen’s federal appropriations practice has provided our clients with top-notch strategies that get results. We have expertise representing a diverse set of organizations in the appropriations process, including well-known Fortune 500 companies, state and local governments, non-profit organizations, and colleges and universities.
​
Leveraging our strong relationships with key Members of Congress, Congressional staff, and senior Administration budget officials, we work with our clients to develop comprehensive strategies to guide them from the beginning of the appropriations process through the release of federal funds. Operating under the current ban on “earmarks” has made navigating the appropriations process even more challenging. However, we have developed multiple successful strategies for aligning client interests with the appropriations process.
​
We understand Federal agencies and we know their priorities. Our knowledge of the appropriations process has helped us succeed in funding large multi-delegation projects and identifying public-private partnerships that can benefit our clients’ interest. This expertise also drives our strong record in helping clients accomplish other legislative or policy goals in the appropriations process.
​
Williams & Jensen has an experienced team of professionals who are deeply knowledgeable of the appropriations process. Our team has a strong record of winning, and has the creativity needed to succeed in a challenging budget environment. We look forward to working with your organization to develop a thoughtful strategy to advance your interests in the appropriations process.
