And, while 10 firms spent more than $2 million, only three firms topped $4 million.

Dale Florio, the head of PPAG, said the firm is thrilled to be at the top of the list again.

“Once again, we are fortunate enough to be recognized as the market leader, according to the official ELEC lobbying results for 2022,” he tweeted. “With a diverse, bipartisan collection of professionals, PPAG serves as the center of the Winning Circle of Companies, a unique group of talented professionals comprising of WSW Winning Strategies Washington, a federal government affairs firm, and PSC (Princeton Strategic Communications), an award-winning communications team specializing in marketing and crisis communication.

“We’d like to thank our clients for trusting us since 1987 and for making us New Jersey’s top lobbying firm for the 20th year in a row.”
