Bockorny Group scores Senate GOP health staffer

A government affairs consulting firm has hired a former Senate GOP health staffer to join the group’s health practice.

Tyler Thompson will start with the Bockorny Group this week. He most recently served Sen. Johnny Isakson (R-Ga.) as lead Republican health staffer, a position he held beginning in 2005.

“Tyler will be a terrific addition to our health practice. He is one of those rare Hill staffers with the respect of his peers and strong relationships on both sides of the aisle,” chief executive officer of the firm Dave Bockorny said in a statement.

Thompson started his Capitol Hill career in 2002. He worked as an adviser for former Sen. Zell Miller (D-Ga.) and Sen. Saxby Chambliss (R-Ga.). 

“The Bockorny Group is known as a firm that delivers results on behalf of their diverse client base, including many organizations and companies in the health arena,” Thompson said.

“I am honored by the opportunity to join this team, working alongside trusted House and Senate veterans from both sides of the aisle.”
