Issue One Hires Lott, Crossroads Strategies for Electoral Reform Push

From Politico Influence on 3/22/2022

Issue One, the political reform advocacy group, has hired a team of lobbyists from Crossroads Strategies that includes former Sen. Trent Lott to push for updates to the Electoral Count Act, the 19th-century law that governs certification of presidential elections. A bipartisan group of senators is working on potential reforms to the law, which Issue One argues in a blog post on its website has numerous gaps and ambiguities that were revealed in the aftermath of the 2020 election and “exposed the nation to enormous risks.”

Crossroads’ Mathew ​Lapinski and Alex Gleason will also work on the account. Crossroads is the only outside lobbying firm currently on retainer for Issue One.
