Welcome!
The Institute
for Government Affairs & Public Policy, LLC (igapp.com) is a pro-business
government relations firm that focuses on direct governmental advocacy
(lobbying), research, consulting and education to help the private and public sectors make progressive and profitable
public policy decisions.
igapp.com has
evolved the government relations practice from being reactive to proactive.
We have done this, in part, by developing and using two approaches
to government affairs that set us apart from other firms. The Institute practices "Constructive Engagement" when
dealing with substantive policy issues. At the same time, clients are
strongly advised to make decisions relating to Political Action Committee
funds using the technique of "Smart Focus". These terms are explained in
more detail later in this site.
Our government
relations offices in
Sacramento, California are strategically aligned with the law and lobbying firm of
Capitol Counsel in Washington, D.C. and the California Bay Area law firm
of Pohls & Humbert.
