Chris Griffin Joins TFG as Senior Associate

After four years working in the U.S. Senate, Chris brings extensive natural resources and energy experience to TFG.

WASHINGTON D.C. – The Ferguson Group (TFG) is pleased to announce Chris Griffin as TFG’s newest Senior Associate. Chris previously spent nearly four years on staff in the United States Senate: first as a legislative aide to the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee and then as Legislative Aide to Senator Lisa Murkowski, R-A.K. In these roles, he managed a broad portfolio of natural resources and public lands issues as well as renewable energy, nuclear energy, and electric grid issues.

“We are incredibly excited to have Chris on board,” said Kristi More, Managing Partner of Strategic Development. “He has an impressive background in federal policymaking and is a key addition to our team as we expand our energy and public power portfolio. Plus, he helped write the policy and legislation that led to the shaping of new grant programs that will benefit local communities.”

Notably, Chris was involved in the crafting and passage of landmark pieces of legislation, including the Great American Outdoors Act, The Energy Act of 2020, and the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act of 2021 (IIJA).

Chris is originally from Anchorage, Alaska, and holds a B.A. in Political Science from Tufts University in Medford, Massachusetts.
