Capitol Insight today announced Richard Reeves as the newest addition to its government affairs team. Prior to joining Capitol Insight, Reeves served as managing partner at SCG Governmental Affairs, where he specialized in insurance, education, workforce, utilities and appropriation issues, among others. Reeves’ expertise afforded him the opportunity to follow United States Senator Bill Nelson from his 1990 gubernatorial campaign to his role as Insurance Commissioner and all the way to his successful campaign for his United States Senate Seat in 2000.
“Capitol Insight is excited to welcome Richard to our growing team of government relations and political consulting experts,” said former Speaker Dean Cannon, president of Capitol Insight. “Richard’s reputation precedes him, and his unique track record of being able to work with both sides of the aisle will be invaluable to our collective team.”
Reeves’ expansive knowledge of Florida politics and legislative affairs has facilitated his success within the political arena, building strong relationships with Florida House and Senate leadership, members of the Cabinet and key decision-makers throughout the State of Florida. It was this demonstrated political acumen that led Reeves to take on the role of finance consultant for United States Senator Marco Rubio’s successful campaign for Speaker of the Florida House of Representatives.
“I am honored to join Capitol Insight’s results-driven team,” said Reeves. “In a short period of time, Capitol Insight has proven to be a force in the political arena, and I look forward to working with this experienced team to collectively advance our clients’ goals.”
Reeves joins Dean Cannon, Cynthia Lorenzo, Larry Cretul, Kirk Pepper and Alan Suskey as part of the Capitol Insight team.
