William E. Barnaby's Bio
William E. Barnaby (Bill Sr.) has been involved in legislative activity since 1961 when he served as the legislative assistant to Congressman John E. Moss (D – Sacramento) for two years. He then worked as an investigator for the U.S. House of Representatives Foreign Operations and Government Subcommittee for another year and a half. Returning to Sacramento in 1964 due to family illness, he became a Consultant to the California State Assembly Ways & Means Committee, then chaired by Assemblyman Robert W. Crown (D – Alameda). In 1967 he served as Chief Consultant to the California State Assembly Education Committee and the following year became Chief of Staff to California State Senator Anthony C. Beilenson (D – Beverly Hills). From 1969 to 1976 he was Chief Consultant and Staff Director for the California State Senate Health & Welfare Committee (now the Health & Human Services Committee).
During 1976 and 1977, Bill Sr. was an in-house lobbyist for the California Medical Association (CMA). In 1978 he formed his own lobbying firm and was initially retained by Ross Perot/Electronic Data Systems. Shortly thereafter he was retained by CMA, most of the clients now represented by Barnaby & Barnaby, and others. Over his rather lengthy lobbying career, Bill Sr. has represented a wide variety of interests. He has no plans to retire in the near future.
Bill Sr. has an A.A. from Sacramento City College, a B.A. in Political Science from the University of California, Davis, and a J.D. from the University of the Pacific, McGeorge School of Law. He has been admitted to practice law before the state and federal courts of California since 1974. |
