S.R. Wojdak & Associates, LP (commonly known as Wojdak & Associates) is a lobbying firm in Pennsylvania.
Wojdak & Associates was among the first lobbying firms to bring "contract lobbying" to Harrisburg.[1] Today, it is one of the "largest and most influential lobbying firms" in the state.[2]
The Pennsylvania Report said that the firm is "widely known to bring home the funds" for clients.[3] The Pittsburgh Post Gazette described Wojdak & Associates as "one of the biggest and best-known firms in the state."[4] In 2002, Wojdak & Associates was part of a controversy in suburban Philadelphia over its lobbying on behalf of red light cameras.[5] During the 2009 Pennsylvania budget impasse, Philadelphia Mayor Michael Nutter controversially extended its lobbying contract with Wojdak & Associates after it expired.[6]
In 2000, Wojdak & Associates' Martin D. Sellers and David S. Feinberg founded Sellers, Feinberg and Associates, a lobbying firm to specialize in heath-related lobbying.[2]
