"Female lobbying firm thrives in male-dominated Capitol"
CALmatters, Feburary 23, 2016 — By Laurel Rosenhall
Photos decorating the Political Solutions lobbying firm look like those inside many similar businesses in Sacramento. One shows a firm partner on the golf course with a former assembly speaker. In another, three lobbyists smile alongside Gov. Jerry Brown.
Then there’s a poster-sized picture indicating something here is a little different. Against the backdrop of the Capitol dome, it’s a close-up of a pink high heel.
"We didn’t purposely set out to have a female-owned firm," said partner Tami Miller.

About Political Solutions
Conceived in 2003 with a $100 investment, Political Solutions is now one of the Capitol’s top lobbying firms. Political Solutions’ partners established the firm to bring clients a higher level of service and to do business differently and more effectively.
Its partners team lobby, a unique approach that benefits clients by enabling them to take advantage of each partner's expertise in the intricacies of the legislative process and strong bipartisan relationships in the Capitol. Founding partners Kristin Beard King, Stacy Dwelley, and Tami Miller offer Political Solutions clients tenacious lobbying efforts, accessibility, and honest feedback, as well as a stellar track record of legislative successes.
In addition to lobbying services in Sacramento, Political Solutions offers consulting services in Washington, DC, where California's Congressional delegation has a number of former state assembly members and senators. Political Solutions assists clients in formulating strategy, relationship building, and profile building that will help them to achieve their objectives on the federal level.
In 2006, the Women’s Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC) certified Political Solutions as a Women’s Business Enterprise (WBE). It is the largest women-owned lobbying firm in California.
Testimonials
"Effective advocacy is about what you know, who you know and how hard you work. These are the principal reasons Family Winemakers of California retained Political Solutions in 2005. The impact in terms of reach, visibility, credibility and results for small wineries throughout California was immediate. Political Solutions has helped steer our public policy agenda of expanding marketing opportunities for all wine producers while fending off tax and fee increases. Term limits dictate that today's successful lobbying paradigm requires maximizing the use of resources and connections within the firm and its clients. Political Solution has found the unique blend and is highly regarded within the state's lobbying community."
