Williams Adds Lou Hayden as Director, Federal Legislative Affairs

Williams announced the appointment of Lou Hayden as director of federal legislative affairs.

 

"Lou Hayden's experience directing national industry lobbying strategies and knowledge of energy and environmental issues is a perfect fit for Williams and adds to the strength of our government affairs team," said Debbie Lawrence, vice president, Government Affairs for Williams.

 

Hayden joins Williams after seven years as the senior director of federal relations at the American Petroleum Institute (API). Prior to his position at API, he was legislative director for the National Association of Homebuilders for three years. He has also worked on political campaigns for President and for Florida governor, and for several members of Congress, including Congressman John Mica and Senator Bob Dole.

 

Hayden holds an M.B.A. from the Wharton School of Business and a B.A. in Economics from the University of Florida.
