Our strategy

Jocelyn Hong & Associates has over 30 years of bipartisan experience working with Members of Congress, the executive branch and other key players in government and business. We have a robust network of personal relationships on Capitol Hill which allows us to navigate the maze of government and formulate a winning strategy and ultimately achieve successful results for our clients.

We begin with an in-depth analysis of our client’s goals to ensure a strategy based on their unique needs. This is followed by an assessment of what is objectively attainable based on the current legislative climate.

As a small, boutique firm our level of service is impeccable. We are committed to ensuring our client’s trust and objectives and will only sign clients if we are reasonably certain we can help them attain their business goals.

We specialize in congressional advocacy and education, legislative analysis, government contract procurement, and business development.

Thank you!
— Lauren Brand, President, National Association of Waterfront Employers
