More Health Care Parties Today
Lobbyists representing health care interests hosted at least two fundraisers today, bringing the week’s total to eight. (See also my post yesterday.)
Jocelyn Hong hosted her third fundraiser this week–this time for Rep. Nita Lowey (D-NY). Her clients include Sanofi-Aventis and Schering-Plough Corp.
Five lobbyists who represent the pharmaceuticals giant Roche were listed as hosting a breakfast for Rep. Ted Poe (R-TX) this morning. Hosts include Darin Gardner, Christine Pellerin, Anna Sagely, Matt Lapinski and Chris Myrick. (You can find Roche’s lobbying expenditures here). The government relations firm that is handling the event also lists Roche as a client.

We also post information we receive about parties where members of Congress are expected to participate—such as convention or inaugural parties.
Since we don't hear about all the parties, you can also tell us if you know where the party is and we don't.
