What Makes Us Unique

The foundation of LBR Consulting is rooted in effective lobbying and government relations. With decades of combined experience, our team brings deep knowledge of the legislative process and a clear understanding of how policy is shaped behind the scenes.

Liz Brown-Reeves draws on her background as a former legislative director, policy expert, and seasoned political strategist to navigate every angle of the State Capitol. Her experience spans substantive bill analysis, budget negotiations, media relations, and day-to-day legislative advocacy.

What truly sets Liz apart is her ability to work across every sector of Illinois government. With long-standing relationships in business and labor, the House and Senate, Democrats and Republicans, and both legislative and administrative branches, she approaches each issue with a balanced, comprehensive perspective.

“Let’s face it, LBR is among the most aggressive advocates under the dome. She works a roll call like no one else and she has incredible energy. She can open virtually any door at the Capitol…”

Our Expertise

  • Client strategy

    Liz Brown-Reeves Consulting assists clients in their government and legislative challenges and provides practical business-focused solutions that enhance the client's competitive position. We have substantive understanding of legislative drafting and administrative policy process, resulting in a full range of options for our clients through business, rule-making and governmental strategies.

  • Relationships

    Relationships are the key to all legislative and administrative victories in the State of Illinois. Many lobbyists, businesses and organizations have professional relationships with legislators, but LBR Consulting goes beyond that by cultivating and maintaining very personal relationships with a wide array of state legislators. On non-session months, LBR Consulting personally visits legislators in their districts to continue nurturing these relationships outside of the Capitol.

  • State processes

    Liz Brown-Reeves Consulting works daily to gather information by attending committee and departmental meetings, press conferences and floor sessions. We review all legislation introduced in the Illinois General Assembly including bills, amendments, conference committee reports, resolutions and proposed constitutional amendments. Our staff has the capacity to review thousands of bills introduced each year and embraces all aspects of the legislative process, including ascertaining client needs, determining appropriate strategies, and developing and carrying out these strategies.
