In his 25 years in the Capitol, Scott Penman has earned a trusted reputation as a key player in Missouri politics. Known for successfully managing complicated policy issues and maintaining relationships on both sides of the aisle, Scott provides clients critical insight into Missouri policymaking, coupled with integrity and honesty at every step.

20+ years

His recent work awarded Scott recognition for "the best lobbying on a single bill" in The Missouri Scout (2018).

Scott's experience has afforded him expertise on a wide array of policy issues from decades of meaningful partnerships. During his tenure in policy work Scott's leadership has ranged from coordinating teams of lobbyists on mutual issues over multiple firms, to being the solo antagonist opposing and negotiating legislation.

His recent work awarded Scott recognition for "the best lobbying on a single bill" in The Missouri Scout (2018).

Scott oversees all aspects of The Penman Group's legislative and policy affairs. His time in the Missouri Capitol is reserved primarily for strategic client representation, engaging with policymakers through one-on-one meetings, testifying before legislative committees, and forging critical relationships.

When he's not managing The Penman Group, Scott is likely traveling to one of his favorite fly fishing spots or taking his family on a camping trip in Colorado.

John R. Hammond III is co-chair of Ice Miller's Public Affairs Group. As a veteran of Indiana state government, he has helped shape a wide variety of public policy, from tax policy to environmental management, education to tort reform, transportation to insurance and economic development.

John served as a key aide to former Indiana Governor Robert D. Orr during his time as lieutenant governor, as well as serving as a deputy campaign manager for Orr's gubernatorial run in 1979 and heading up his transition team in 1980. He was senior executive assistant for Legislative Affairs and Education Policy in the Orr administration, serving as chief legislative liaison for six general sessions and three special sessions of the Indiana Legislature during the 1980s. Since leaving state government in 1988, he has led the governmental and public affairs programs for several major Indiana firms.

He is a frequent public affairs panelist and lecturer, and is the co-author of the article "Campaigns and Candidates: Lawyers and Their Obligations," prepared for the Legislative Services Agency for Continuing Legal Education's seminar titled, "The Lawyer-Lobbyist." He also serves as a Republican commentator and analyst on Indiana Week in Review, a state wide public affairs news program of WFYI focusing on Indiana government and politics. He has served as an advisor to several statewide campaigns.

John was awarded his Bachelor of Arts from DePauw University in 1976, and a juris doctor from the Indiana University School of Law in 1991. He is admitted to practice law in the state of Indiana.

John joined Ice Miller in February 2001.

We are founded on principles, morals, and ethics...Unlike many traditional lobbying firms, CEO & Founder of Ashlar Government Relations, Therese McGucken Hessler, believes in the issues and clients she and the firm represents.Frustrated after seeing the holes in the system first-hand due to a lack of communication between issue-based groups and varying political parties, McGucken Hessler decided to start Ashlar Government Relations . She believes in an approach separate from party lines and is passionate in working to make the lives of others better through policy change.That's what Ashlar Government Relations is all about. For a better state of mind. We are a firm that was created for the purpose of being able to stand in the middle, to be loud, and to make sure the things that really matter don't get lost between party lines.We are more than just a government relations firm.We are the change
