assisting corporations and governments over the past several years to obtain earmarked grant funding in each of the 12 annual federal appropriations bills for initiatives such as transportation projects, water infrastructure projects, health care facility upgrades, and educational programs.The results shown below illustrate what we have accomplished for clients: Holland & Knight's Federal Budget and Appropriations Team is committed to using our knowledge and experience for getting federal funding for our clients' projects. Obtaining earmarked funding for projects is more challenging in the current federal budget environment than in previous years due to several factors, including increased scrutiny of budget expenditures. We have experience in drafting report language that has the intended outcome of instructing a federal agency to act in a positive manner for our clients, whether that be to conduct a study, undertake a particular policy activity, consider certain criteria when evaluating projects or to include client projects on key lists for potential funding. Even with over 80 appropriations clients, 24 subcommittees, dozens of representatives and varied deadlines, members of the Federal Budget and Appropriations Team coordinate project schedules as part of our commitment to meet every deadline. Many requests submitted on behalf of our clients involve the support of more than one member of Congress. Each subcommittee has its own set of deadlines for funding requests. There are 24 appropriations subcommittees between the House and the Senate. In addition, we have extensive experience representing clients in front of key staff at critical agencies and in the White House, including the Office of Management and Budget. With more than a century of experience among our team members, we have developed excellent working relationships with key members of Congress and staff of the appropriations committees in both the House and the Senate. We understand the process and know how, where and when to intervene. Our Federal Budget & Appropriations Team has secured billions of dollars and exceptional policy results over the last decade for clients. Holland & Knight has an established budget and appropriations practice in Washington, D.C., with extensive experience in all aspects of federal appropriations law. The Support You Need – From Strategy and Advocacy Through Implementation Whether you're seeking a policy change at a federal agency, funding for local infrastructure, training programs or the funding of a government contract or grant for corporate or nonprofit clients, having an experienced advocate who understands the process is key.
