This week on the Cygnal Pulse Pod (Ep. 13), Brent Buchanan and Chris Kratzer begin by discussing what issue work looks like for lobbyists as they may not be allowed in the building to meet with legislators in the same way they have before. Polling can be the key to “get in the door.”
This week’s guest is Bo Staples, Director of Political Action Committees and Governmental Reform for the Louisiana Association of Business and Industry (LABI). Bo got his feet wet in politics during his time at LSU when he became a member of the student government. He found his passion and switched majors from pre-med to political science. Bo has been a part of Louisiana State politics for over 13 years and jokes that he now has 230 elected bosses.
