The Chesapeake Group approaches government relations and lobbying with a focus on customer service and information sharing. Navigating bureaucracy can be intimidating and frustrating, but through decades of experience and relationship building I assist my clients in achieving their goals at the Capitol and understanding the complex processes behind the scenes. Connecting people to tackle issues and remove barriers to business is tremendously rewarding and why I love my work.

  • Eric is as solid, effective, and responsive as one could want in a government relations professional. He understands what's important and what isn't, and only spends his and our valuable time on the former. Top notch. - Hunter Limbaugh, Southeastern Counsel Wine Institute
  • Eric was chosen as our lobbyist because of his work ethic and outstanding relationships with legislators and other advocates. His ability to get competing interests to work together and find solutions has proven invaluable. - Brett Michelin, Senior Director, State Government Affairs Association for Accessible Medicine

    • Eric M. Sunstrom has had a distinguished career communicating complex issues to public officials; first as an in-house government affairs executive and most recently as the head of a successful lobbying firm. Eric's career began in local lobbying as the first ever director of governmental affairs for the St. Tammany Home Builders Association. From there he was hired as the Louisiana Restaurant Association's VP of government affairs.

    His experience in the halls of the legislature made for an easy transition to contract lobbying and public relations. Eric launched The Chesapeake Group in 2004 bringing his expertise to a wider range of clients, designing and implementing programs to promote legislative and regulatory initiatives on their behalf. Since that time he has advocated issues from industry-supported fee increases, tax cuts and pro-business legislation. Currently, Eric serves as President of The Chesapeake Group, coordinating the legislative agenda for a number of clients. Mr. Sunstrom was recently appointed to the LSU School of Vetinary Medicine Dean's Advisory Council. He is a former member of the Governor's DWI Task Force, and the Hunting and Fishing Advisory Education Council.

    Eric is a native of Baltimore, Md and attended Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge, La where he received a Bachelor's Degree in Political Science. He resides in Baton Rouge with his wife Meg and their Doberman, Copper.
