Consultants Not Bound by Restrictions

A study by the Center for Public Integrity found a new twist on the "revolving door" issue:

[I]ncreasingly campaign consultants are turning to lobbying once elections are over. And unlike federal legislators and their staff members, who are required to wait a year before lobbying former colleagues, consultants are not bound by rules slowing down the so-called "revolving door" between doing campaign work and lobbying.
