The Gallatin Group is excited to announce the formation of WestNet Alliance and the opening of our new joint office in Washington, D.C. located just steps from the U.S. Capitol at 101 Constitution Avenue. 
 
WestNet is a strategic partnership among three of the West's most prominent public policy, communications and governmental relations firms - The Gallatin Group, Phase Line Strategies and R&R Partners. WestNet is the single-stop public affairs solution for ten western states.
 
"WestNet expands our reach for existing clients and creates new opportunities for prospective clients," said Marc C. Johnson, the President of The Gallatin Group. "This alliance is the highest quality, easiest to use and most effective public advocacy team in the western United States."

R&R Partners is the largest independently owned advertising and public affairs firm in the Intermountain West. R&R specializes in the communications needs of "public eye" companies - expertly managing messages and relationships across the media, business community and public arena. R&R's clients include the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority, Skywest Airlines, and Utah Transit Authority.

Phase Line Strategies has quickly established itself as one of the premier public affairs firms in the West. Phase Line ensures client success by developing a strategic plan based on a series of benchmarks or "phase lines" that take clients from point A to point B in order to meet objectives. Phase Line's clients include Western Union, Colorado Oil and Gas Association, and Qwest Communications.

The Gallatin Group is the Pacific Northwest's leading public affairs firm. Unique for its regional depth and national reach, diverse professional experience, and bipartisan relationships with federal, state and local decision-makers, The Gallatin Group has a track record of consistently delivering results for its clients, which include AMI Semiconductor, The Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde, and University of Idaho.
