As the Post-Standard reported on Friday, former Congressman Jim Walsh began a new career at the Washington D.C. law firm, K & L Gates, one of the largest law firms in the world. He will be working as a government affairs counselor. Walsh says he will be one of only three former congressmen on staff. He must observe a one-year ban on lobbying his former colleagues in the House, but he is allowed to lobby the executive branch, along with state and local governments. He does not plan on retuning to politics. We wish him well and thank him for his service.
