A Different Approach to Political Consulting in California
Swing Strategies is a California-based political consulting firm with a strong reputation in public affairs and strategic communications. They've worked on ballot measures, issue campaigns, and corporate public affairs for major clients. If you're evaluating firms for a California engagement, it makes sense to compare your options.
Movement Makers takes a different approach. While we share expertise in California politics and public affairs, our firm is built around a model of operational accountability and direct principal involvement that sets us apart.
What Sets Movement Makers Apart
Movement Makers was founded by practitioners — people who have run campaigns, managed political organizations, and operated inside government at multiple levels. Our team includes former congressional campaign managers, county party executive directors, and current legislative staff with experience in California and across the country. We don't just advise — we operate.
We take on a limited number of engagements specifically so that every client works directly with our principals. No account managers, no junior associates, no handoffs. When you engage Movement Makers, you get the people who built the strategy sitting in the room when decisions get made — whether you're in California or anywhere in the nation.
Full-Service Political Consulting
Movement Makers provides campaign consulting, government relations, independent expenditure strategy, field and ballot operations, and public affairs. Whether you need a general consultant for a competitive race, an IE strategist for a late-breaking independent expenditure, or a government affairs team to advance legislation in Sacramento — our principals handle it directly.
