Communication
 
Communication with the Governor’s Office
  • Initially, contact the Governor’s policy advisor on significant conversations with legislators or strong concerns about legislation.
  • If you need to escalate the communication, contact Brian Shipley.

Communication with DAS
 
Policy Issues
Please contact either the Governor's policy advisor or Amy Velez on policy issues.
 
Media
Agencies should alert Lonn Hoklin of any media inquiry. He will then give the “heads up” to the Governor’s Office and will either comment to the media or direct the agency to do so.  

Fiscal Impacts
The DAS Operations Division will develop a process by which to communicate and coordinate cross-agency efforts relating to fiscal impacts.
 
 

Tips of the Trade
  • There should be no surprises for the Governor’s Office or for the DAS Director.
  • Agencies should not make any deals without Brian's and the policy advisor's prior knowledge.
  • Remember that cameras in the hearing rooms are always on. When you think the audio system is off, it’s not.
