why locust street

If you are trying to change opinions in Congress, K Street has never been as important as Locust Street.

DC may have K Street with tons of lobbyists, but small towns all over America have a Locust Street. They host the barbershops, local chambers, and small businesses that can move and influence policy in Congress.

The Locust Street that we’re named after runs through the center of Des Moines, Iowa. It’s a special place for us because we have worked on multiple Presidential campaigns and know that all politics is local — even big, national battles are won and lost in places just like Des Moines.

Locust Street Group is based in Washington, DC now but we will never forget that good grassroots campaigns come from community organizing, town halls, and boots on the ground — not K Street.
