Capitol Weekly Podcast: Lobbying and the regulatory state

Almost one year to the day from his last visit to the Capitol Weekly Podcast, lobbyist, author and adjunct professor at McGeorge School of Law, Chris Micheli joins Capitol Weekly’s Tim Foster and John Howard to talk about the business of lobbying.

Micheli, a self-described “nerd” about government and public policy, has published two books about the function of government: “Understanding the California Legislative Process,” and, with Ray LeBov, “A Practitioner’s Guide to Lobbying and Advocacy in California.”

After one of the strangest and most intense years in California legislative history, Micheli talks about the legislative outlook is for 2021 and what to look for come February 19, the last day for bills to be introduced.
