About Jackson Richard Thein
Big wins in Congress are not achieved by smart moves in the committee room or a vote on the floor alone. What makes Capitol Hill move on an issue is a campaign that unifies strong congressional strategy, stakeholder relationships, and communications playbooks.As Legislative Director to Congresswoman Melanie Stansbury (D-NM-01) I lead our incredible policy team and advise the congresswoman on her broader strategy to achieve her legislative goals, using all of those levers.I previously was a bipartisan government affairs strategist supporting nonprofits and philanthropies on efforts to lower health care costs at Waxman Strategies. I began my career in politics leading on health care and other consumer policies for Senator Jeff Merkley (D-OR) from my home state of Oregon.
