It has been a pleasure working with the entire MWSG team this past year. Their knowledge of the political process, legislative strategy, ability to understand complicated business and just plain tireless effort week after week, helped defeat a bill, which was critical so my company’s operations could continue in Michigan. I recommend them without hesitation to anyone needing legislative/regulatory representation.

We engaged the services of Midwest Strategy Group beginning in 2011 following an exhaustive review process and having been served previously by another major firm. In large part, we chose to align ourselves with Midwest because of their knowledge and expertise specifically on transportation issues. We have not regretted our choice for one moment. In addition, over the past 18 months, we have had a need to work closely with other members of the Midwest team on health-field related issues and on creation of a Political Action Committee. Their knowledge, depth of commitment to our needs, and pleasant staff is second-to-none. I highly recommend Midwest Strategy Group!

My decision to engage Midwest Strategy Group on LS Power’s behalf in Michigan was an excellent one! As an independent energy company new to doing business in the State, LS Power didn’t have any existing allies in government. The Midwest team broke down the process and created a message that ensured strong support for our issues in the legislature. The team quickly absorbed new concepts and energy-specific issues and advocated persistently in the face of powerful opposition. I consider them to be experts on electric industry competitive procurement, local climate change economics and politics as well. They are the go-to lobbying firm in Michigan.
