Capitol Weekly’s Top 100: Mandy Isaacs-Lee
Illustration by Chris SharyNo. 80 Mandy Isaacs-Lee
A couple years ago, when Capitol Weekly ranked the Top 10 Capitol power couples, Mandy Isaacs-Lee and her wife Alicia Isaacs-Lee came in at No. 4. If we redid that list today, they’d be higher. Alicia, No. 62 on this year’s Top 100, remains in her influential role as chief consultant and “right hand” to Assembly Budget Chair Jesse Gabriel while Mandy’s boutique lobbying firm, Omni Government Relations, has grown over the last two cycles, adding a third lobbyist on staff as its quarterly receipts have generally trended upwards with clients like AT&T, Kaiser Permanente and CVS. Omni quite possibly could be the only woman, Asian American Pacific Islander and LGBTQ+-owned lobbying firm in town. Speaking of which, Mandy is also a high-profile AAPI and LGBTQ+ activist, serving on the boards of Equality California and the California LGBT Leadership Fund.
