Former Alaska Democratic Rep. Mary Peltola has joined a law and lobbying firm.
Holland & Hart announced Monday that Peltola is the firm’s new senior director of Alaska affairs, and will be based in Alaska. The firm also announced that Anton McParland, who was Peltola’s chief of staff, is joining the firm as senior director of federal affairs.
Peltola was, until two months ago, Alaska’s at-large House representative, a position she first won in 2022 in a special election following the death of then-Rep. Don Young (R).
