Alex Pinson

Alex has helped shape and execute federal policy within Congress, the Executive Branch, and on behalf of clients in the private sector for over a decade. He has extensive experience helping clients in the national security, life sciences, and higher education sectors to strategically advance their priorities; particularly those leveraging the federal appropriations process.

Alex has been recognized by his peers as a "Top Lobbyist" by the National Institute for Lobbying & Ethics (NILE) and co-leads NILE's annual efforts to teach other lobbyists how to navigate the appropriations process.

Before joining DLA Piper in 2021, Alex helped lead congressional relations at the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), ultimately as Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Congressional Relations. There, he managed departmental engagement with 84 bipartisan, bicameral congressional Appropriators, and advised agency leadership on federal funding matters.

Previously, Alex served as a senior aide to former House Appropriations Chairman and current Dean of the House, Congressman Hal Rogers (R-KY), where he managed many of the Chairman's priorities.
