“We are honored to receive recognition as Top Lobbyists once again,” said CSP co-founder and Managing Partner Keith Pemrick. “Our success is fueled by the close relationships and frequent contact we maintain with our clients. Those connections enable us to drill down with them on their key issues, respond to rapidly changing circumstances, and succeed time and time again.”

“Keith and I are proud of the hard work it took to achieve this milestone, but it’s important to note that it isn’t ours alone,” said CSP co-founder and Managing Partner George McElwee. “Behind us is a team just as dedicated to the success of our clients as we are, who execute day-in and day-out on their behalf. As we head into a new Congress next year, that team will continue to be the driving force between our clients’ success and ours.”

In addition to McElwee and Pemrick’s recognition in 2021 and 2022, CSP was recognized as a Bloomberg Government Top-Performing Lobbying Firm in 2021.
