Who we help

Built for the organizations laws land on.

The biggest companies have lobbyists and policy teams. Everyone else finds out after the vote. Mandate gives the rest of the economy the same early warning and the same voice.

Lobbyists and consultants

Independent lobbyists, public affairs consultants and small government relations firms

Every client wants proactive updates. Building them by hand eats the hours you should be spending in meetings.

Track each client's issues, get plain-English summaries to send on and run grassroots campaigns without buying a separate tool.

What Mandate watches for you

  • Client issue areas
  • Committee activity
  • Regulatory changes
  • Advocacy campaigns

Trade and professional associations

State and regional associations, professional societies and industry groups

Your members expect you to know about every bill before they do, and to rally them when it counts. Your team is small and the legislature is not.

Track every state you cover from one dashboard, send members a clear weekly picture and turn a bad bill into a member campaign the same day.

What Mandate watches for you

  • Scope of practice
  • Industry regulation
  • Occupational licensing
  • Agency rulemaking

Government affairs teams

Policy leads at growing companies, health systems and universities

You are the whole department. Enterprise platforms cost more than your budget and still leave the reading and the memo to you.

Mandate does the first read on everything that matches your issues, rates the impact and hands you a briefing you can forward to leadership.

What Mandate watches for you

  • Your company's priority issues
  • Multistate trends
  • Federal rules
  • Hearing deadlines

Nonprofits and advocacy groups

Community organizations, service providers, coalitions and cause-driven groups

Funding, programs and the people you serve can change with one budget line or one rule, and you do not have a lobbyist on retainer.

Know which bills and rules touch your mission, then mobilize supporters to contact their own lawmakers or file public comments in two minutes.

What Mandate watches for you

  • Grant and funding programs
  • Social services rules
  • Charitable regulation
  • Public comment periods

Chambers of commerce and business groups

Local and state chambers, business improvement districts and economic development groups

You speak for hundreds of employers on dozens of issues. Keeping up by hand means something important always slips through.

Watch the issues your members care about across state and federal government and give them a simple way to act together when it matters.

What Mandate watches for you

  • Business tax
  • Workforce and labor
  • Zoning and development
  • Small business programs

Businesses

Restaurants, retailers, contractors, salons, clinics and family-owned companies

You find out about a new law when your accountant mentions it, a customer complains or an inspector shows up. By then it has already passed.

Mandate watches your state and Congress for the rules that hit your costs, licenses and staff, and tells you in plain English what changes and when.

What Mandate watches for you

  • Minimum wage and tip credits
  • Licensing and permits
  • Sales and payroll tax
  • Worker classification
