Former Congressman Peter Roskam leads BakerHostetler’s Federal Policy team and hosts a podcast giving listeners access to key congressional policy and political debates.
In the latest episode of “The Cloakroom with Peter Roskam,” Roskam hosts a discussion recorded at the 37th Annual Legislative Seminar in Washington.
The seminar brought together prominent figures from the worlds of law, policy, and government to discuss the most pressing legislative issues of the moment.
Joining Roskam at the event was his BakerHostetler colleague and fellow former Congressman Heath Shuler, adding another experienced political voice to the conversation.
The podcast also featured a notable guest in Kenneth Kies, who currently serves as Assistant Secretary of the Treasury for Tax Policy.
Kies brings considerable credibility to the discussion, having previously been an alumnus of BakerHostetler before taking on his senior Treasury role.
In his current position, Kies holds significant responsibility over tax policy matters within the Treasury Department, making his perspective especially relevant to legislative discussions.
The 37th Annual Legislative Seminar in Washington serves as a significant gathering point for policy professionals, lawmakers, and legal experts tracking congressional developments.
BakerHostetler’s Federal Policy team, led by Roskam, has positioned itself as a key voice in tracking and shaping conversations around major political and legislative debates in Congress.
The episode reflects the firm’s broader effort to connect its clients and audiences with high-level insight from individuals operating at the centre of US tax and fiscal policy.
