With more than 25 years at BGR Group, Jennifer Larkin Lukawski serves as a trusted advisor to Fortune 500 companies, trade associations, and growth companies, helping them navigate complex public policy challenges and advance their strategic priorities. Whether the issue involves Congress, the White House, or federal agencies, she develops and executes federal advocacy strategies that shape legislative and regulatory outcomes, mitigate political and policy risk, and achieve measurable results.

Jennifer’s work spans legislative strategy, regulatory engagement, executive branch advocacy, coalition building, and strategic communications across a broad range of industries, including food and consumer products, manufacturing, technology, education, and infrastructure. By translating complex political and regulatory developments into actionable strategies, she enables organizations to make informed decisions and engage effectively in the policymaking process.

Before joining BGR Group in 2001, Jennifer held several influential roles that shaped her keen understanding of the policymaking process. As Director of House Relations at The Heritage Foundation, she navigated the political landscape of one of the nation’s leading public policy research organizations. Her leadership also includes serving as the inaugural Executive Director of the Republican Study Committee (formerly the “Conservative Action Team”), the largest member coalition in the U.S. House of Representatives, which was instrumental in the GOP’s historic 1994 midterm election victory—ushering in the first Republican-controlled Congress in 40 years. Additionally, Jennifer’s career includes serving as a senior policy advisor and Legislative Director to Rep. Bob Dornan (R-CA), where she honed her skills in legislative strategy and policy development. With deep roots in Washington’s political sphere, she continues to leverage her unparalleled expertise to drive results and shape the future of public policy.
