“John Simpson is going to add tremendous value for our public affairs clients; he has super digital and messaging skills,” said managing partner Henry Barbour. “In addition, John understands telecommunications policy inside and out, so he will be a big help in our Washington office.”

“I had the opportunity to work with Capitol Resources on a few projects over the past year. It didn’t take long to understand that they do great work and their clients trust them immensely,” said John Simpson. “I am excited to now be an official part of the team.”

Simpson’s Washington Experience

Before his work in Georgia, John was a Public Policy Consultant at Wiley Rein LLP in Washington, D.C., where he specialized in telecommunications and mass media policy issues before the United States Congress and the Federal Communications Commission.  A native of Michigan, Simpson worked on Capitol Hill for United States Congressman Mike Rogers.  Simpson and his wife, Anne, live in Atlanta, Georgia.
