• Corning, Incorporated

  “As the Chairman of the Baldridge Foundation, I was fully aware that this was going to be an uphill legislative battle. There were major problems in both the authorization and the appropriations process. Furthermore, when your firm was retained to work on this project there was very little time left in the legislative session. Nevertheless, your firm was instrumental in formulating an incredibly successful legislative strategy and implementing it with precision and diligence.

  I was particularly impressed that your legislative contacts were both bipartisan and bicameral. This achievement was not only a priority for Corning Incorporated—but it was personally extremely important for me. Your firm demonstrated to me that you deliver!”

  Chairman & CEO
  Corning Incorporated
