For over 40 years, the Messerli & Kramer Government Relations team has shown integrity, unmatched service and a respected presence before the Minnesota Legislature, executive and regulatory agencies and local units of government. Every day we put that experience and knowledge to work to best serve our clients. Our lobbyists have been called upon to develop and pass into law some of the most complex and high profile legislation ever enacted in Minnesota. Just a few examples include:

Messerli & Kramer has a respected reputation for bipartisan lobbying activities that never take a legislator's vote for granted. Our real success is reflected by the fact that most of our clients were referred to us by legislators, other lobbyists who know the quality of our work and clients who have experienced the value of having our representation at the Capitol.
Coordination of statewide lobbying efforts to pass Minnesota's "Marriage Equality Act."
Bonding legislation for Target Field - a 42,000-seat, open air, natural grass ballpark, home of the Minnesota Twins.
Extensive involvement in bonding legislation to develop and expand metro transit and light rail.
Lobbying to support passage of mandatory seatbelt laws.
Representation of Minnesota law enforcement and first responders.

Firm Specialties:
Government Relations services at Messerli & Kramer fall largely under four key areas:

Legislative Lobbying - helping clients navigate due process and gain access to key decision makers to advocate for their interests.
Procurement - enhancing the ability for Minnesota companies and organizations to win contracts with state government entities.
Economic Development - supporting efforts to improve the quality of life and business and job growth in Minnesota communities.
Municipal Representation - assisting clients with protocols before units of government to obtain approvals, permits, waivers and other assistance.
In addition, our team represents clients in administrative law and grassroots advocacy. In the political arena, we have advised candidates and consulted on elections, and supported the Governor's office and state agencies. We offer legal and strategic advice for regulatory and administrative bodies, and management of strategic and crisis communications.
