About Kristina Hamilton
Imagine lawmakers actually gave your cause the attention it deserves.How would that affect your organization? Your community? The world?There are thousands of interest groups, represented by highly paid lobbyists, walking the halls of the Capitol, all vying for lawmakers’ attention.I help you get to the front of the line, making sure your voice is heard by the right people at the right time. You’ve heard it all before -\"plugged in\" consultants promising the world but delivering little.Or, you tried to do it yourself and wasted countless hours trying to gain traction - only to be passed over in favor of more powerful interests.before you even get to make your case.Its makes you question your work, your mission, your ability to lead.You feel like you’ve let your community down. You’re frustrated and questioning what comes next.Don’t.In 2023, over $358 million was spent on lobbying in California.When so much money is thrown at lobbying and PR firms by corporate interests wanting to protect their bottom line, it’s no surprise you feel like you’re not making any progress.Organizations that work for justice need someone on the inside that can not only compete with the “big boys” but cares deeply about your success.But first and foremost, you need results.Need to tap into local, state & federal funding so workers and their communities not only survive, but thrive?I\'ve led campaigns securing $1 Billion - and rising.Want to pass legislation that empowers working families?I led efforts to pass SB 85•••16), establishing the right to overtime pay for home care workers and increasing their annual compensation by $300 -$400 Million.Want someone that is personally invested in your success and won’t just string you along?Look no further.I come from Labor.I fight every day for social, economic & worker justice. And policy makers at the Capitol know that when I bring a proposal to their attention, it is no longer \"just another bill\".Learn more at
